Adenovirus infection during stem cell transplantation is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Adenovirus species B and C have been the main causes for these infections; however, epidemiological details about the species are still unclear. To clarify the contributions of species B and C adenovirus, the DNA was tested serially by quantitative real-time PCR in peripheral blood, stool and urine of 32 patients (16 adults and 16 children) undergoing stem cell transplantation. Adenovirus species B viremia was detected in 10 of 16 adult and 6 of 16 pediatric transplant recipients. Adenovirus species C viremia was also detected simultaneously in five adult and three pediatric recipients. The stool and urine of patients with adenovirus viremia were also positive for the same adenovirus species as in blood. In contrast, in none of 50 healthy adult controls was adenovirus species B or C viremia detected. Among patients who developed adenovirus viremia, one adult recipient developed disseminated disease and died from multiple organ failure. The remaining patients experienced fever of several degrees and/or diarrhea during the period of adenovirus viremia; however, they all recovered without antiviral therapy. The results indicated that stem cell transplantation was frequently associated with adenovirus species B or C viremia, although it did not always cause serious infectious complications.
