Abstract
This article from the National Transplantation Pregnancy Registry (NTPR) describes the pregnancy outcomes of female transplant recipients who received a solid organ transplant when younger than 21 years old. The analysis includes kidney, liver, liver-kidney, heart, and lung recipients. No recipients in the registry received a pancreas-kidney or heart-lung transplant before age 21. To date, the NTPR has not received report of a pregnancy in a small bowel recipient. This article also reviews immunosuppressive medications with regard to pregnancy safety.
