摘要
Infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a frequent complication of organ transplantation and presents a spectrum of disease ranging from asymptomatic viremia to life-threatening tissue-invasive disease. CMV is also lymphotrophic, with the potential to induce autoimmune disease, although immunosuppressive therapy may prevent or attenuate the clinical course in transplant patients. We report a case of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura occurring in a renal transplant recipient after primary CMV infection and discuss the possible mechanisms involved.
