Abstract

This study investigates the prevalence of Trypanosoma cruzi infection among solid organ transplant recipients in the United States from 2019 to 2023 before transplantation. Utilizing data from a large multicenter network, we identified a rising seroprevalence of 4.8% from 1523 solid organ transplant recipients at the time of the evaluation for transplantation, particularly among lung and heart transplant recipients. The findings highlight the need for improved screening protocols to address this neglected tropical disease in transplant populations.
