How Evolution of Mutations Conferring Drug Resistance Affects Viral Dynamics and Clinical Outcomes of Cytomegalovirus-Infected Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Recipients

Infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV) remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients. We describe two pediatric HCT recipients who developed persistent and severe drug-resistant CMV infections. CMV resistance to foscarnet and ganciclovir wa...
