dc.description.abstractNowadays, there have truly been spectacular advances in surgical techniques, the preservation of organs for transplants, the optimal and efficient selection of both donors and recipients, a more efficient diagnosis and prediction of possible complications of transplants, and important progress in the advances of pharmacological immunosuppression protocols and procedures. In this sense, survival rates after transplantation of various organs have been progressively increasing, especially in the case of lung transplants, whose average survival rate is usually lower than that of other types of solid organ transplants. Thus, detecting acute and subclinical rejection and chronic allograft rejection of any implant is important. This is important in all transplants, such as heart and lung transplants. In this last type of transplant, particularly, and due to the chronic dysfunction of the lung allograft, it is key to detect rejection early and on time, since it can reach close to half of the transplant patient population. Therefore, practical diagnostic tools are needed to visualize the level of allograft damage using genomic methods such as those that measure donor-derived cell-free DNA, where its amount increases in the plasma component of the transplant after tissue injury or due to allograft infection. This biomarker has become a key element with light and hope, but with some shadows of caution due to its use as a panacea. Our research team has experience in solid organ transplantation in quantifying this parameter in the progression of the lesion of the implanted allograft, and our experience and comparison with the published literature will be presented in the following review, discussing validated and non-validated results.
