Tailored combined cytomegalovirus management in lung transplantation: a retrospective analysis.

Compared to previous findings, our study shows a lower incidence of CMV pneumonia and viremia despite the presence of a substantial CMV load. In addition, our findings further confirm the D+/R- group to be a high-risk population for CMV viremia. Overall, a good immunological response seems to protect patients from CMV viremia and pneumonia but not from CMV alveolar replication.
