  • Title: Visceral leishmaniasis: a rare cause of post-transplant fever and pancytopenia.
    Author: Rajaram KG, Sud K, Kohli HS, Gupta KL, Sakhuja V.
    Journal: J Assoc Physicians India; 2002 Jul; 50():979-80. PubMed ID: 12126362.
    Abstract:
    Despite the endemic distribution of visceral leishmaniasis in certain parts of our country, there are only a few reports of this infection in renal transplant recipients. We report one renal transplant recipient from non-endemic area with visceral leishmaniasis and graft dysfunction that responded to treatment with stibogluconate. The infection should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a febrile transplant recipient with pancytopenia and allograft dysfunction.
