GILA, Juan de Dios López González; JALDO, María del Pilar Aguilar; GARCIA, Elena Clavero  e  FUENTES, María del Carmen Ruiz. CMV disease with gastrointestinal involvement in kidney transplan- tation. Report of a case. Rev. nefrol. dial. traspl. [online]. 2021, vol.41, n.4, pp.71-80. ISSN 2346-8548.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most important pathogen causing opportunistic infections in renal allograft recipients. The development of CMV disease is associated with increased morbidity, a higher incidence of other opportunistic infections, loss of allografts, and death. Therefore, an effective strategy is required to prevent CMV disease after kidney transplantation. We present the case of a patient who suffers from a severe gastrointestinal condition due to the pathogen itself with subsequent adequate clinical evolution.
