The increasing occurrence of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) infections has posed major challenge to solid organ transplantation (SOT). For SOT recipients, high-dose immunosuppressants and broad-spectrum antibiotics can markedly increase the risk of early postoperative MDRO infections and thus have adverse effects on the outcomes of SOT. Here, we analyzed the incidence and clinical features of early MDRO infections after SOT, in an attempt to provide new evidence for the control and treatment of early MDROs.
