Human Herpes Virus 6 Infection in 54 Patients after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Clinical Manifestations and Outcome

https://ash.confex.com/ash/2014/webprogram/Paper73452.html

CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective study confirms a correlation of HHV-6 with high morbidity and mortality rates after alloSCT, thus suggesting a regular HHV-6 monitoring in alloSCT recipients. The regular monitoring of HHV-6 DNA, using a real-time PCR assay, may be useful for identifying active HHV-6 infection and for the introduction of a pre-emptive treatment, possibly reducing the incidence of the most severe clinical complications. Despite HHV-6 detection typically occurred early after alloSCT, a better immune reconstitution has the potential to improve clinical outcome.
