Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is serious complication after clinical renal transplantation. A case of CMV hepatitis and nephropathy after living related renal transplantation was reported.

On day 35 after operation, she developed high fever with hepatic and renal damage and was diagnosed as CMV infection from clinical course and virological examination.
