    Author: Kowalsky S, Arnon R, Posada R.
    Journal: Pediatr Transplant; 2013 Sep; 17(6):499-509. PubMed ID: 23890075.
    Abstract:
    CMV is the most common opportunistic infection affecting SOT recipients. Although current strategies to prevent both CMV infection and disease have been effective, CMV related complications continue to occur, particularly late-onset CMV disease. This literature review article examines the benefits and disadvantages of different prevention modalities, and presents emerging strategies to better prevent CMV in organ transplant recipients.
