HIV infection after autologous bone marrow transplantation despite HIV-antibody and HIV-antigen screening.
We report a 41-year-old woman who underwent ABMT for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma during her third CR. Her post-transplant course was complicated by interstitial pneumonitis, hemorrhagic cystitis, cytopenia and episodes of infection from herpes zoster virus and Staphylococcus aureus. She required prolonged blood product support and was later found to be seropositive for anti-HIV on day +191 despite HIV-antibody and HIV-antigen screening of blood donors.
