Very-late-onset interstitial pneumonia suspected to be related to liver transplantation more than 10 years ago.

Pulmonary complications after liver transplantation are common in the postoperative period, becoming less frequent in the subsequent months, and rare after 1 year. However, we encountered two cases of very-late-onset interstitial pneumonia suspected to be related to liver transplantation after 14 and 15 years. Both patients presented with non-specific interstitial pneumonia patterns, which significantly improved with corticosteroid therapy. Physicians should be aware of such complications and monitor them after liver transplantation.
