Abstract
Adenoviruses can complicate the peritransplant course of pediatric solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. Distinguishing adenovirus infection and disease is an important aspect of clinical management. This chapter outlines the epidemiology, risk factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and management of adenovirus disease in these populations.
