Renal failure associated with human polyomavirus BK and human adenovirus in a child with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

Immunocompromised patients are susceptible to multiple severe viral infections. This paper describes a 4-yearold boy with newly diagnosed B- cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. The 4-year-old patient developed haemorrhagic cystitis, obstructive nephropathy and renal failure due to human polyomavirus BK and human adenovirus co-infection. Cidofovir should be used only in life-threatening cases.
