Polyoma virus hemorrhagic cystitis in an otherwise normal child.
We describe a case of polyoma virus hemorrhagic cystitis in a nonimmunosuppressed child. Polyoma virus infection was suspected because of abnormal urine cytology. Polyoma virus cystitis in nonimmunosuppressed children is self-limited, resolving spontaneously within 2 weeks.
