title: [Rejections and cytomegalovirus infections after renal transplantation].
abstract: Immunosuppressed patients are known to be susceptible to infectious agents. Association of allograft rejection and herpes virus infection (high incidence of cytomegalovirus) was yet reported after renal transplantation. Authors studied 19 rejection episodes on 24 renal transplantation performed for 17 months, cytomegalovirus infection being associated in 7. Because of the therapeutic difficulties observed in these cases, a preventive attitude is necessary.
