Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is often referred to as the “troll of transplantation” because it lurks quietly, waiting to emerge and complicate the clinical course of organ transplant patients. Join our infectious diseases experts, Drs. Humar, Razonable, and Silveira, as well as an experienced patient with CMV for this live-streamed event aimed at “taming the troll.” The panel will discuss guideline-based CMV treatment strategies and how to approach refractory and drug-resistant CMV after solid organ transplantation (SOT), including a new therapeutic option. Prepare to ask your challenging CMV in SOT questions to the panel at the end of the discussion.
