  • Title: Association of parvovirus B19 infection with glomerulonephritis in an immunocompetent host: a case report.
    Author: Obeid KM, Effendi AR, Khatib R.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 2009; 41(11-12):890-2. PubMed ID: 19922076.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of an immunocompetent host with acute glomerulonephritis following parvovirus B19 infection. Renal biopsy demonstrated immune-mediated disease; parvovirus B19 DNA was detected in renal tissue and blood. The patient improved with corticosteroid therapy. Repeat serology 3 months later confirmed recovery from the acute viral infection, although viraemia persisted.
