HFE mutation analysis was performed as previously described [ 23 ] . A and B alleles were detected using low-resolution DNA-based typing (PCR/sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe) in probands [ 23 ] . Control subjects were tested using the microdroplet lymphocytotoxicity test [ 25 ] ; subjects were evaluated using antisera that detected allele assignments described in the 9 thInternational Histocompatibility Workshop [ 26 ] .

Investigators have showed that a large percentage of transplant patients who had developed PTLD also had CMV disease [ 22 30 ] . In addition to CMV being implicated as a factor for the development of PTLD, serological studies have shown that patients with an active CMV infection experienced a serological profile of EBV reactivation [ 22 31 32 ] .
