Held TK, Biel SS, Nitsche A, Kurth A, Chen S, Gelderblom HR, Siegert W (2000): Treatment of BK virus-associated hemorrhagic cystitis and simultaneous CMV reactivation with cidofovir
Bone Marrow Transplant. 26: 347-350.

Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) is a common complication following high-dose chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation, and the treatment of virus-associated HC remains to be optimized. This is the first report on the successful use of cidofovir in a patient with HC and polyoma viruria concomitant with CMV reactivation after allogeneic BMT. Treatment led to a significant decrease in viruria and to sustained suppression of CMV reactivation. Administered with probenecid and hydration, cidofovir was well tolerated, and there were no side-effects.
