Infections are common complications after treatment of SOT rejection. Female gender, higher neutrophil at time of rejection, and increased numbers of rejection episodes were predictors of infections after rejection in simultaneous liver-kidney and kidney transplant patients. Infections were predictors of graft loss at 6 months and mortality at any point in follow-up in kidney transplant patients.
