A RARE PRESENTATION OF CYTOMEGALOVIRUS INFECTION IN A RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENT: PNEUMONIA ACCOMPANIED BY AORTIC ANEURYSM INFECTION/DISSECTION

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is an important cause of morbidity and mortality among kidney transplant recipients. Generally it is presented with a clinical picture called CMV syndrome, but it may cause invasive tissue involvement as well. The most frequently infected tissues are lung and gastrointestinal system tissues. Cardiovascular involvement is rare and generally associated with atherosclerosis and transplant artery stenosis. In this paper, we present the case of a renal transplant recipient with aortic aneurysm infection/ dissection and pneumonia associated with CMV infection. 
Keywords: CMV, pneumonia, aortic aneurysm infection, dissection, renal transplantation

BÖBREK NAKLİ ALICISINDA SİTOMEGALOVİRÜS ENFEKSİYONUN NADİR BİR PREZENTEASYONU: PNÖMONİ VE EŞLİK EDEN AORT ANEVRİZMA ENFEKSİYONU/ DİSEKSİYONU

Sitomegalovirüs (CMV) enfeksiyonu, böbrek nakli alıcıları için önemli bir morbidite ve mortalite nedeni olabilmektedir. Genellikle CMV sendromu olarak adlandırılan bir klinik tabloya yol açmakla birlikte, invaziv doku tutulumuna da yol açabilmektedir. En çok tutulan organlar akciğerler ve gastrointestinal sistemdir. Kardiyovasküler tutulum ise nadirdir ve sıklıkla ateroskleroz ve transplant arter stenozu ile birliktedir. Bu yazıda; böbrek nakli alıcısında CMV enfeksiyonu ile ilişkili aort anevrizması enfeksiyonu/diseksiyonu ve eşlik eden pnömoni nedeniyle takip ettiğimiz nadir bir olguyu sunmayı amaçladık. 
Keywords: CMV, pnömoni, aort anevrizması enfeksiyonu, diseksiyon, böbrek nakli
