RESUMO
Parvovirus B19 infection should be contemplated as one of the differential diagnoses of persistent anemia in transplanted patients. There must be high index of suspicion of Parvovirus B19, when post-transplant patients present with refractory and severe anemia with reticulocytopenia and all the other common causes of anemia such as blood loss, adverse effects of immunosuppressant agents and graft dysfunction has been ruled out. In suspected patients, diagnosis is confirmed by serological tests [IgM and IgG], PCR from blood and/or bone marrow and by bone marrow biopsy finding of pure red cell aplasia. Intravenous immunoglobulin [IVIG] is the treatment of choice and highly rewarding. Here we are reporting two cases of post-transplant Parvovirus infection, one in an adult lady and second in an adult man who underwent live renal transplantation recently
