An Overview on Common Viral Infections in Kidney Transplant Recipients
International Journal of Advances in Nephrology Research · pp. 68–81 · Published 20 Sep 2021
Abstract
The viral infections post transplantation are extremely important and guides us about the intensity of immunosuppressant and there monitoring guides us to fine tune the immunosuppression. Similarly the knowledge of the viral diseases post transplantation guides the transplant clinician to diagnose these diseases early and manage them before they become progressive. Similarly blood transmitted diseases are much more common in resource poor countries. With lack of deceased donor program and paired kidney exchange in infancy we end up doing sensitised or ABO incompatible living donor transplants subjecting them to intense immunosuppressive regimens, which ultimately lead to the emergence of opportunistic viral infections such as CMV, BK and EBV.
