| dc.description.abstract | Concomitant infections, which are common in patients who have received an organ transplant, must be diagnosed and treated early to prevent high mortality rates. We describe a case of concomitant Cytomegalovirus infection and Aspergillus pneumonia in a heart transplant patient who received pulsed steroids as therapy for rejection, and we describe the successful treatment of that coinfection with ganciclovir and voriconazole. | |
