    Abstract:
    We describe a single-center pediatric experience with 1 mg/kg/wk cidofovir without probenecid in 7 children with BK virus-associated hemorrhagic cystitis. Clinical improvement was observed in all cases, without adverse events, although significant reduction of urinary viral load was observed 2 weeks after the end of cidofovir in 5 out of 6 patients who completed the treatment.
