title: [Transfusion-related acute lung injury. A case report].
abstract: Acute lung injury is a common adverse effect of massive blood transfusion, responsible for 17% of the deaths due to transfusion in France. A cardiac origin is often suspected. We report a case of post-transfusional pulmonary oedema in a cirrhotic patient, which could be related to a non-cardiac and underdiagnosed aetiology: the so-called transfusion related acute lung injury (TRALI).
