High-Frequency US for BK Polyomavirus–associated Nephropathy after Kidney Transplant

Radiology, 2022
Background BK polyomavirus-associated nephropathy (BKPyVAN) is an important cause of chronic renal allograft dysfunction. However, US features indicative of BKPyVAN have not been fully evaluated. Purpose To assess the value of high-frequency US for the diagnosis of BKPyVAN in kidney transplant recipients.

An application of the 2018 Banff Classification for BK polyomavirus‐associated nephropathy in renal transplantation

Transplant Infectious Disease, 2021
AbstractBackgroundThere is still a lack of a recognized morphological classification of BK viral nephropathy (BKVN) which can better reflect the clinical manifestations and prognosis.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of 53 patients with BKVN in our center from January 2011 to December 2018 and evaluated the new Banff 2018 classifications ...

BK Polyomavirus-Associated Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder with a Background of BK Polyomavirus Nephropathy in a Kidney Transplant Recipient

Nephron, 2023
Renal transplant recipients are at increased risk for the development of a malignant neoplasm. Polyomavirus-associated urothelial carcinoma is a rare tumor that occurs in renal transplant recipients, with approximately 41 cases reported since 2002. It accounts for 27–31% of all post-transplant urothelial carcinomas and develops at an average of 8.5 ...

Granulomatous inflammation in BK polyomavirus–associated nephropathy

Transplant Infectious Disease, 2018
AbstractEvolving BK polyomavirus–associated nephropathy (BKPyVAN) is characterized by tubulointerstitial inflammation that closely resembles acute T‐cell–mediated allograft rejection if tubulitis is significant. The cellular composition of the inflammation varies during the course of BKPyVAN, and clusters of plasma cells may herald resolution of the ...

Polyomavirus‐associated nephropathy: update on BK virus‐specific immunity

Transplant Infectious Disease, 2006
Abstract: The human polyomavirus type 1, also called BK virus (BKV), causes polyomavirus‐associated nephropathy (PVAN) in 1–10% of renal transplant recipients, with graft loss in over 50% of cases. The risk factors for PVAN are not conclusively defined and likely involve complementing determinants of recipient, graft, and virus.
