Abstract
A 47-year-old woman receiving predonine after renal transplantation underwent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery because of medically angina uncontrollable since 1996. Although she had an episode of acute renal rejection successfully treated with steroid pulse therapy, she had no angina or hemodialysis for over 2years after CABG. We discuss postoperative management of renal recipient after cardiac surgery using lymphocyte-subpopulation monitoring.
