Current Uncertainty and Future Research Regarding Malignancies in Heart Transplantation
• Relationship between different immunosuppressants and cancer risk
• Relationship between duration and intensity of immunosuppression and cancer risk
• Efficacy of low or minimal immunosuppression regimens
• Frequency of cancer screening
• Components of cancer screening

To cease smoking is the easiest thing I ever did…..
I ought to know because I've done it a thousand times
Mark Twain, 1905

Tobacco Exposure After Heart Transplantation: How Frequent?
Mehra M et al. American Journal of Transplantation 2005
• In 86 consecutive heart transplant recipients, 28 had evidence of significant tobacco exposure
• 32.5% rate of recrudescence– 14 with urine positivity (denied exposure)– 12 admitted exposure and had urine positivity– 2 admitted to smoking but were not urine
positive

Smoking Kills The Cardiac Allograft

The Cardiac Allograft Is Going Up In Smoke: A Call to Action
Mehra M et al. American Journal of Transplantation 2005Mehra M. American Journal of Transplantation 2008
• A Third of patients resume smoking after a heart transplant!
• Although advances in prevention of rejection allow median survival of 15 years, smokers reduce their average life span by 4.5 years
• Most deaths occur due to development of accelerated coronary artery disease and new cancers

common sense rounded out and minutely articulated
