Anemia as very late‐onset cytomegalovirus disease after kidney transplantation

2018 
: Very late-onset cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease after solid organ transplantation is not associated with classic risk factors; therefore, it does not follow a pattern of predictable appearance. A high index of suspicion is necessary to make an accurate diagnosis. Anemia has multiple etiologies among kidney transplanted recipients, and CMV could be one of them. We report the case of a kidney recipient with anemia refractory to treatment which proved to be secondary to extremely late CMV digestive disease.
