Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) tends to occur in greater frequency among cyclosporine (CsA)-treated renal-transplant recipients. Because administration of sirolimus may increase the whole-blood concentrations of CsA, we sought to assess the impact of the combination regimen on the incidence, predisposing factors, and consequences of postoperative DVT, transplant renal-vein or artery thrombosis, and pulmonary embolus.
