[Immunosuppression after organ transplantation].
Immunosuppression after organ transplantation is based on pharmacologic interventions using steroids, azathioprin, sandimmun and anti-T-cell-globulins. During the induction-period the use of a high-dose combination-therapy guaranties a low incidence of rejection episodes. However infective complications may predominate. In the long-term phase the results of different immunosuppressive protocols are similar in respect to patient- and graft survival. This circumstance promotes the possibility to perform an individualised immunosuppression, which compiles to the personal demands of the graft recipient.
