Title
West Nile Virus and Transplantation
Abstract
Infections are an important cause of morbidity and mortality after transplantation. Some of these infections are environmental and geographically or seasonally important. West Nile virus is one such infection, tied to the epidemiology of infected mosquitos which varies over time. It can cause disease for a transplant recipient either from direct inoculation from an infected mosquito or as a donorderived infection. This chapter reviews current data about the epidemiology of West Nile virus, looking at the risk of infection (naturally occurring and donor derived), disease manifestation, diagnosis, management, and suggestions for prevention.
