title: Donor-Related Coccidioidomycosis Transmitted Through Left-Liver Transplant to a Child Recipient in a Nonendemic Area.
abstract: This first observation of donor-transmitted coccidioidomycosis in a pediatric liver-transplant recipient underlines a rare condition in transplanted patients in a nonendemic area. This transmission was observed after a liver split, the patient being contaminated by the left liver while the right-liver recipient was not.
