Cardiac Transplant Rejection

Transplant Rejection

Rejection can happen after any kind of transplant. Rejection is your immune system's way of trying to protect your body from the donated organ or tissue. Rejection can happen soon after a transplant, or months or years later. As time goes on, your chance of rejection lowers but never goes away.
