Rare and Emerging Viral Infections in the Transplant Population

摘要: Viral infections account for a large proportion of emerging infectious diseases, and the agents included in this group consist recently identified viruses as well previously with an apparent increase disease incidence. In transplant recipients, can include no recognized pathogenicity immunocompetent patients those that result atypical or more severe presentations immunocompromised host. chapter, we begin by discussing viral diagnostics techniques used discovery, specifically they apply to rare patient population. Focus then shifts specific re-emerging population, including human T-cell leukemia virus 1, rabies, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, bocavirus, parvovirus 4, measles, mumps, orf, dengue. We have also brief discussion on families few reported cases recipients: monkeypox, nipah hendra, chikungunya other alphaviruses, hantavirus Bunyaviridae, filoviruses. Finally, concerns regarding complications xenotransplantation reporting are addressed. With marked number solid organ hematopoietic stem cell transplants performed worldwide, expect corresponding rise reports hosts, both from known yet be identified.
