Adenovirus (AdV) infections in transplant recipients may cause invasive disease. We present a case of granulomatous interstitial nephritis secondary to AdV infection in a renal transplant recipient that was initially interpreted as acute graft rejection on histopathology. Specific testing based on clinical suspicion, however, aided in making an accurate diagnosis. We present a retrospective review of all cases of AdV infection in renal transplant recipients to date, and analyze outcomes based on different treatment modalities for this disease.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009395 Nephritis, Interstitial Inflammation of the interstitial tissue of the kidney. This term is generally used for primary inflammation of KIDNEY TUBULES and/or surrounding interstitium. For primary inflammation of glomerular interstitium, see GLOMERULONEPHRITIS. Infiltration of the inflammatory cells into the interstitial compartment results in EDEMA, increased spaces between the tubules, and tubular renal dysfunction.
