ABSTRACT
Lung nodules or masses due to a variety of malignant or benign conditions such as opportunistic infections are observed after lung transplant. Malakoplakia is a rare complication in immunocompromised patients. Here we describe the clinical course and management of a lung transplant recipient with pulmonary malakoplakia and provide a review of the literature. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a case of pulmonary malakoplakia due to Escherichia coli infection in a lung allograft.
