Use of the cytocentrifuge for the detection of cytomegalovirus inclusions in the urine of renal allograft patients. A case roport
Abstract
The cytodiagnosis of virus infected cells in the urine of immunosuppressed patients is a new and important aspect of exfoliative cytology. A case report is presented which demonstrates the detection of diagnostic viral inclusions in a renal allograft recipient with CID. Diagnostic cells with good cytologic detail are observed using a Cytocentrifuge technique.
