ABSTRACT
Sirolimus is a promising immunosuppressive drug for renal transplantation to avoid nephrotoxicity of calcineurin inhibitor. However, it has been associated with uncommon but, important pulmonary toxicity. We present a case of sirolimus related dyspnea with abnormal chest radiographic finding in a 63 year old male renal transplantation recipient. There was no evidence of bacterial, fungal, or viral infection. Dose reduction of sirolimus resulted in a significant improvement of the symptoms and chest radiographic finding.
