Core Tip |
BK viral infection is a significant post-transplant infection, which can result in kidney dysfunction if left unaddressed. The mainstay approach to BK infection is reduction of immunosuppression. Data on specific therapies have remained equivocal. In this article, we will review recent evidence available in literature on treatment approaches to BK viral infection. |
