Pancytopenia With Hypercellular Bone Marrow Secondary to Cytomegalovirus After Cardiac Transplant
The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 07/01/09

Elkhateeb O et al. - The authors describe a case of cytomegalovirus-induced pancytopenia in a heart transplant patient. The patient was treated with ganciclovir, which resulted in the complete resolution of the viremia and pancytopenia. Cytomegalovirus infection should be suspected in heart transplant patients with pancytopenia, regardless of bone marrow results.
