Parvovirus B19 Infection

: Parvovirus is one of the uncommon causes of anemia in a kidney transplant patient. We reported a kidney transplant patient with parvovirus infection who developed severe anemia three weeks after kidney transplantation. Suspicion of infections increased due to the decrease in erythrocyte level. The patient's anemia became normal with a decrease in the amount of immunosuppressant and treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). Parvovirus B19 infection should be considered in all patients with persistent anemia with or without graft failure after renal transplant.

Specific Immunosuppression

BK virus is ubiquitously present in the latent state in humans, and awareness of the importance of BK polyomavirus is emerging among the kidney transplant community. First discovered in 1971 in the urine of a renal transplant recipient, BK virus nephropathy (BKVN) has come to be recognized as a significant cause of genitourinary disease and potential graft loss in the kidney transplant patient. In this review, we discuss the risk factors, available methods of diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring, and current approaches to therapy of BKVN.
