Abdominal hematoma in a patient with Covid-19 infection;Report a case of disease
Introduction: Coagulopathy is a relatively common problem in patients with severe Covid-19. In this study, a hospitalized patient with Covid-19 who developed an abdominal hematoma is introduced. Case Report: The patient was a 46-year-old woman who was hospitalized due to Covid-19. On the fifth day of admission, she developed abdominal pain without gastrointestinal symptoms. Abdominal and pelvic...
full textTreatment of hepatitis C virus infection in kidney transplant recipients: case report.
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection exists in a large proportion of patients undergoing renal transplantation. Nowadays it is not considered to be an absolute contraindication to transplantation; however, it is associated with an increased risk for the patient and accounts for a shorter half-life of the renal allograft. We present three transplant recipients who displayed serious hepatic ...
full textA Review on JC Virus Infection in Kidney Transplant Recipients
The polyomavirus (PyV), JC virus (JCV), is a small nonenveloped DNA virus that asymptomatically infects about 80% of healthy adults and establishes latency in the kidney tissue. In case of immunodeficient hosts, JCV can lytically infect the oligodendrocytes, causing a fatal demyelinating disease, known as progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Although the reactivation of another hum...
full textTuberculosis in kidney transplant recipients: A case series
Solid organ transplant recipients have an elevated risk of tuberculosis (TB) with high mortality. Data about TB in this population in the United States is sparse. We present four cases of active tuberculosis in kidney transplant recipients at our center. All patients had possible TB exposure prior to transplant and all were diagnosed with active TB within the first year of transplant. Dissemina...
full textCMV Infection in CMV-Seropositive Kidney Transplant Recipients
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a major cause of morbidity in kidney transplant recipients. CMV seropositivity is common in the general population, with a reported prevalence ranging from 30 to 97% (Paya, 2001; Preiksaitis et al., 2005). After primary infection, CMV establishes life-long latency. During the past 2 decades, major advances in the management of CMV infection of transplant patie...
full textNeutralization Serotyping of BK Polyomavirus Infection in Kidney Transplant Recipients
BK polyomavirus (BKV or BKPyV) associated nephropathy affects up to 10% of kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). BKV isolates are categorized into four genotypes. It is currently unclear whether the four genotypes are also serotypes. To address this issue, we developed high-throughput serological assays based on antibody-mediated neutralization of BKV genotype I and IV reporter vectors (pseudovi...
