摘要
BackgroundVaricella-zoster virus (VZV) reactivation is the most common infectious complication in the late posthematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) period and is reported as 16%-41%. Acyclovir prophylaxis is recommended for at least 1 year after HSCT to prevent VZV infections. However, studies on the most appropriate prophylaxis are ongoing in pediatric patients.MethodsPatients who underwent allogeneic HSCT between January 1, 1996 and January 1, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed to outline the characteristics of VZV reactivation after allogeneic HSCT in pediatric patients using 6 months acyclovir prophylaxis.ResultsThere were 260 patients and 273 HSCTs. Median age was 10.43 (0.47-18.38), and 56% was male. Median follow-up was 2325 days (18-7579 days). VZV reactivation occurred in 21.2% (n = 58) at a median of 354 (55-3433) days post-HSCT. The peak incidence was 6-12 months post-HSCT (43.1%). Older age at HSCT, female gender, history of varicella infection, lack of varicella vaccination, low lymphocyte, CD4 count, and CD4/CD8 ratio at 9 and 12 months post-HSCT was found as a significant risk for herpes zoster (HZ) in univariate analysis, whereas history of varicella infection and low CD4/CD8 ratio at 12 months post-HSCT was an independent risk factor in multivariate analysis.ConclusionsTailoring acyclovir prophylaxis according to pre-HCT varicella history, posttransplant CD4 T lymphocyte counts and functions, and ongoing immunosuppression may help to reduce HZ-related morbidity and mortality. Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) reactivation is the most common infectious complication in the late posthematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) period and is reported as 16%-41%. Acyclovir prophylaxis is recommended for at least 1 year after HSCT to prevent VZV infections. However, there is less information on pediatric patients and studies on the most appropriate prophylaxis are ongoing.image
