What is pulmonary haemmorrhage?How does it happen to a Bone-marrow Transplanted patient as the post-bone marow complications?
Pulmonary haemorrhaging is acute bleeding into the lungs and respiratory system These therapies can damage the heart and lungs, and lead to pulmonary oedema and haemorrhaging. Also a reduced immune system can invite infections which will also damage the tissue. Bleeding may also be an issue, since after the transplant there may not be enough platelets to prevent bleeding. Some studies in rabbits show that bone marrow transplant can increase pulmonary arterial pressure as well as capillary pressure, which may also damage the heart or circulatory system, and induce haemorrhaging http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3571064
