Article	Year
Cytomegalovirus polyradiculopathy of late onset in a young renal transplant recipient. Clinical nephrology, 2013, Volume: 80, Issue:1 Although cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease in CMV IgM/IgG-negative renal transplant recipients from CMV-positive donors (D+/R-) can occur after discontinuation of prophylaxis treatment as a flu-like syndrome or tissue invasive disease, involvement of the central nervous system is rare. Here, we report a case of CMV polyradiculopathy 6 months after renal transplantation that presented as a Guillain-Barre like syndrome and was successfully treated with foscarnet. This case highlights an uncommon aspect of CMV invasive disease which we should keep in mind in CMV (D+/R-) renal transplant recipients. Topics: Adult; Antiviral Agents; Cytomegalovirus Infections; Foscarnet; Ganciclovir; Humans; Kidney Transplantation; Magnetic Resonance Imaging; Polyradiculopathy; Time Factors; Valganciclovir	2013
