Abstract

There haves been few reports of cytomegalovirus (CMV) gastroenteritis following allogeneic stem cell transplantation, especially in pediatric cases. Herein, we report a case of CMV gastroenteritis in a 10-year-old boy with relapsed juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia who had undergone a donor leukocyte infusion. He presented with a skin rash, diarrhea and abdominal pain following a donor leukocyte infusion. Cramping abdominal pain persisted, even after treatment of the acute graft-versus-host disease. Therefore, gastroduodenoscopy and a gastric mucosal biopsy were performed, after which CMV gastroenteritis was diagnosed. The boy recovered after treatment with ganciclovir and intravenous immunoglobulin.

Keywords CMV gastroenteritis, GVHD, Donor leukocyte infusion
