Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection after renal transplantation is a problem of increasing concern resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. Widespread use of ganciclovir (GCV) and valganciclovir (VGCV) may cause an increase of CMV resistance to these first line drugs. Other treatment options are sparse and often complicated by adverse events, namely nephrotoxicity associated with foscarnet and cidofovir. Leflunomide may be another treatment option for CMV infections. So far it is not clear if leflunomide can also be used in the case of GCV-resistant CMV infections. Here we describe the use of leflunomide in two patients after renal transplantation with GCV-resistant CMV infections.
