MARTINEZ, Larry Luber; MONTOYA, Mariana  e  BERLINGHIERI, Juan David. Pure red cell aplasia secondary to parvovirus B19 infection in an HIV positive patient. Acta Med Colomb [online]. 2018, vol.43, n.1, pp.42-44. ISSN 0120-2448.

The chronic infection by parvovirus B19 in seropositive patients for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is an identifiable and treatable cause of anemia in this population, which in our environment has not yet been widely studied. The active search for this pathogen in HIV positive patients with severe anemia without compromising other cell lines can lead to an improvement in the quality of life over time and reduction of the costs of the disease to the health system. We present the case of a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and anemia who was identified as parvovirus B19. (Acta Med Colomb 2018; 43: 42-44).

Palavras-chave : Human parvovirus B19; HIV-1; anemia; pure red cell aplasia; quality of life.
