Greater work and understanding about the epidemiology of these donor-derived transmissions is continually required to further mitigate this risk. Herein we present the first reported case of proven donor-derived transmission of coxsackievirus serogroup-3, an enterovirus, following solid organ transplant. Swift and effective communication between the organ donation agency, treating physicians, laboratory testing and notification ensured a coordinated approach. The resulting clinical syndromes in the organ recipients were mild. This case highlights the requirement for ongoing surveillance over a broad range of infecting pathogens that may present as a donor-derived infection., The authors describe the first reported case of proven donor-derived transmission of coxsackievirus serogroup-3, an enterovirus, following solid organ transplant., (C) 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd M1 - 100968638 PB - (1)Victorian Infectious Diseases Reference Laboratory, Melbourne, Australia(2)DonateLife Victoria, Carlton, Australia(3)Department of Nephrology, Monash Medical Centre, Clayton, Australia(4)Liver Transplant Unit, Austin Hospital, Heidelberg, Australia(5)I CY - (C) 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd VL - 15 SN - 1600-6135 CP - 2 L2 - http://ovidsp.ovid.com/ovidweb.cgi?T=JS&PAGE=reference&D=ovftq&NEWS=N&AN=00024798-201502000-00035 ID - 4046 ER -
