AB Abstract: Intravenous ribavirin was given to nine patients who had developed severe adenovirus-induced hemorrhagic cystitis (AD-HC) which was resistant to

conventional therapy or where there was involvement of other organs after allogeneic BMT. Three patients recovered completely from AD-HC, two of whom had
been resistant to vidarabine. All three had received sibling BMTs (2 HLA matched, 1 HLA mismatched)...
