WCN25-4432 BK Virus Nephropathy and Transplant Outcomes - A Single Center Study
Though kidney transplant is the best modality of treatment for End-Stage-Renal Disease, it is complicated by infections like BK Polyoma Virus which subsequently leads to BK Polyoma virus Nephropathy and graft loss. Early recognition of BK virus nephropathy and reduction of immunosuppressants can diminish risk of graft loss. There is lack of clinical data regarding BK Polyoma virus Nephropathy and its outcome in developing countries like Nepal.
