[THE ETIOLOGY OF VIRAL INFECTIONS UNDER TRANSPLANTATION OF KIDNEY AND ALGORITHM OF THEIR LABORATORY DIAGNOSTIC]
Abstract:
The article presents data of virology examination of recipients of kidney in respect of actual agents of viral infections--cytomegalovirus, Epshtein-Barr virus, viruses of human herpes simplex type I and II, virus of human herpes type VI, Varicella-zoster virus, parvovirus B19, adenoviruses and BK virus. The dynamics of development of infectious processes were analyzed for dominating viral infections during 12 months after organ transplantation. The etiologic structure of viral complications in recipients of kidney was identified. The dominating role of cytomegalovirus, Epshtein-Barr virus, BK virus infections (41.9, 30.4 and 17.5% correspondingly) was established. The algorithm of implementation of virology examination of donors and recipients with indication of evaluation of obtained data and recommendations for its application.
