  • Title: Fulminant hepatic failure caused by adenovirus infection following bone marrow transplantation for Hodgkin's disease.
    Author: Somervaille TC, Kirk S, Dogan A, Landon GV, Mackinnon S.
    Journal: Bone Marrow Transplant; 1999 Jul; 24(1):99-101. PubMed ID: 10435743.
    Abstract:
    Adenoviruses are increasingly realised to be responsible for serious morbidity and mortality following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. We describe a case of fulminant hepatic failure due to adenovirus serotype 2 in a 39-year-old woman who received a matched sibling allogeneic bone marrow transplant for multiply relapsed Hodgkin's disease. Isolated fulminant hepatic failure caused by this serotype of adenovirus has not previously been described.
