From Upper Respiratory Symptoms to Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis: Case Report of a Human Adenovirus Infection in Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Recipient

Human adenovirus infection is rare in adult population, except for in immunocompromised individuals. Recipients of allogenic haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are reported at high risk for human adenovirus, which is often lethal when it evolves into the disseminated form. Despit...

description Human adenovirus infection is rare in adult population, except for in immunocompromised individuals. Recipients of allogenic haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are reported at high risk for human adenovirus, which is often lethal when it evolves into the disseminated form. Despite existent guidelines, prevention, early diagnosis, and therapeutics remain challenging. Here, we report the case of a fatal evolution of human adenovirus respiratory infection and discuss the actual recommendations to prevent recurrence of this major issue.
