Deskripsi
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, one of the most common viral infections seen post-transplantation, is rarely known to occur after 15 years. Here, we report a 59-year-old male on minimum immunosuppressive agents who presented with abdominal pain and was found to have CMV infection of the distal ileum with concurrent high CMV viral load 17 years post kidney transplantation.
