Prospective study of cytomegalovirus antigenemia in allograft recipients
Abstract
A recently published technique for direct detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigenemia was tested prospectively in 27 transplant recipients. Eighteen patients developed active CMV infections and 10 of the 18 experienced CMV syndrome. All of the infections were detected by classical virus isolation and/or serologic techniques. No antigenemia was demonstrated.
