  • Title: Persistence of parvovirus B19-DNA in blood of a child with severe combined immunodeficiency associated with chronic pure red cell aplasia.
    Author: Gahr M, Pekrun A, Eiffert H.
    Journal: Eur J Pediatr; 1991 May; 150(7):470-2. PubMed ID: 1915497.
    Abstract:
    In a female child with severe combined immunodeficiency, pure red cell aplasia was observed which required regular transfusions of erythrocytes. Parvovirus B 19 DNA (but no antibodies) was detected in stored serum samples after the death of the patient. We suggest that the anaemia was a consequence of parvovirus infection which persisted for at least 2 years due to the immunodeficiency.
