Adenovirus infection is a potentially serious complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and has been reported to occur more frequently following T-cell-depleted reduced-intensity HSCT. However, the true incidence and clinical significance as well as the relationship of disease to viremic titer remain unclear due to wide variation in study populations and methodology.
