The effect of COVID-19 on the transplant recipients is not well-established Many reports underestimate the effect of COVID-19 on the immunosuppressed population Herein, we report on 3 pediatric liver transplant recipients who were transplanted at our center between February 11 and March 10, 2020-during the COVID-19 pandemic era The 3 patients aged between 5 and 10 months, had a rapid and aggressive respiratory deterioration that necessitated mechanical ventilation and extracorporeal life support;and eventually died The clinical and pathological pictures likely represent COVID-19 pneumonia Chest x-rays showed progressive infiltrates Lung autopsies showed diffuse alveolar damage in two cases We concluded that COVID-19 is very likely to have catastrophic effects on transplant recipients
