JC virus-associated nephropathy is rare in kidney transplant recipients, and even rarer in recipients of other solid organ transplants. We present a case of JC virus-associated nephropathy in a heart-kidney transplant recipient, which to our knowledge is the first case reported in the literature. We discuss the findings on renal biopsy for JC virus nephropathy and our management approach to this rare complication.
巨细胞病毒相关性肾病在肾移植受者中较为罕见,在其他实体器官移植受者中更为罕见。我们报告了一例心脏-肾移植受者的巨细胞病毒相关性肾病病例,据我们所知,这是文献中首例报道。我们讨论了肾活检中巨细胞病毒相关性肾病的发现以及我们对这种罕见并发症的处理方法。
