| Core Tip |
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after liver transplantation in children is a serious complication, with high morbidity resulting from direct and indirect effects. Despite risk stratification, pre-emptive therapy and antiviral prophylaxis, late CMV infection frequently occurs in transplant recipients. If CMV infection is suspected during outpatient visits, then prompt detection is key. If CMV infection is detected, then decreasing immunosuppressants should be prioritized before initiation of antiviral therapy. Oral valganciclovir and intravenous ganciclovir are the mainstays of treatment, with variable duration depending on CMV manifestations, viral load, histopathology, and clinical response. |
