A children patient with intracranial infection after brain surgery associated with elevated Torque Teno Virus
Elevated TTV levels in CSF may indicate underlying immunodeficiency and predispose patients to opportunistic fungal infections. Prompt fungal testing including qPCR is recommended when TTV is detected in CSF. Further research is needed to elucidate the role of TTV in clinical infections and optimize management strategies.
