title: Viral infections associated with bone marrow transplantation.
abstract: Bone marrow transplantation is complicated by a sequential occurrence of viral infections, the predictability of which influences disease management. Among these infections are herpes simplex virus, cytomegalovirus, varicella zoster virus, Epstein-Barr virus, respiratory viral infections, hepatitis viral infections, and gastrointestinal infections. The approach to the treatment and prevention of these infections is discussed.
