Abstract
Background: We aimed to examine the epidemiology and outcomes of AdV disease in SOTr and assess the utility of AdV surveillance in SOTr <13 years.
Methods: SOTr transplanted at Rigshospitalet, 2010-2021, were included. The center had a screening program for SOTr <13 years with monthly plasma AdV tests the first 6 months following transplantation.
Results: We included 2009 SOTr (of whom 82 were aged <13 years), and 1330 blood samples from 382 SOTr were analyzed for AdV, of which 10 (0.8%) from 6 SOTr <13 years tested positive. Five out of six were tested as part of the screening program. Three remained asymptomatic, while three had symptoms attributable to co-infections. One adult lung transplant recipient with AdV in BAL had acute exacerbation of chronic graft rejection.
Conclusions: We found a low incidence of AdV disease. SOTr diagnosed with AdV viremia as part of screening remained asymptomatic or had symptoms attributable to co-infections. Our findings do not support routine surveillance for AdV in SOTr.
期刊介绍:
Open Forum Infectious Diseases provides a global forum for the publication of clinical, translational, and basic research findings in a fully open access, online journal environment. The journal reflects the broad diversity of the field of infectious diseases, and focuses on the intersection of biomedical science and clinical practice, with a particular emphasis on knowledge that holds the potential to improve patient care in populations around the world. Fully peer-reviewed, OFID supports the international community of infectious diseases experts by providing a venue for articles that further the understanding of all aspects of infectious diseases.
