Experience of BK Virus in Allogenic and Autologous Bone Marrow Transplantation:
Mediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2014 The BK virus is a member of the polyomavirus family. When the immune system is compromised, as in patients undergoing chemotherapy after hematopoietic stem cell and solid organ transplantation, the virus is reactivated leading to haemorrhagic cystitis ...
