Clinical characteristics and outcomes of adenovirus infection of the urinary tract after renal transplantation

Urinary tract infection caused by human adenovirus (HAdV) after renal transplantation (RT) results in graft loss because of concomitant nephropathy and acute rejection and may result in death because of systemic dissemination.
