Potential complications include: * Post-operative complications include infection, sepsis. The surgery death rate was 5–10% in 2011. * Acute or chronic graft rejection :*Cardiac allograft vasculopathy * Atrial arrhythmia * Lymphoproliferative malignancy * Increased risk of secondary infections due to immunosuppressive medication * Serum sickness due to anti-thymocyte globulin * Tricuspid valve regurgitation Repeated endomyocardial biopsy can cause * Bleeding and thrombosis Rejection Since the transplanted<unk>  originates from another organism, the recipient's immune system typically attempts to reject it. The risk of rejection never fully goes away, and the patient will be on immunosuppressive drugs for the rest of their life. These drugs may cause unwanted side effects, such as an increased likelihood of infections or the development of certain cancers. Recipients can acquire kidney disease from a<unk>  transplant due to the side effects of immunosuppressant medications. Many recent advances in reducing complications due to tissue rejection stem from mouse<unk>  transplant procedures. People who have had<unk>  transplants are monitored in various ways to test for the development of rejection.
