CMV is one of the most common opportunistic infections affecting solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs), conveying higher risks of complications, graft loss, morbidity, and mortality. Treatment options for CMV are limited, have similar mechanisms of action, suffer from cross-resistance, and have serious toxicities. Until recently, no treatment option was available in the resistant/refractory setting. This workshop, developed in collaboration with The Transplantation Society (TTS) and Dr. Camille Kotton, MD, FIDSA, FAST, will take you through a CMV primer and then move on to discuss cases submitted by your peers from transplant centers across the United States.
