Abstract:
Adenovirus pneumonia is a common type of pneumonia in immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients, and its prognosis is poor.Antiviral therapy includs ganciclovir, valganciclovir, cidofovir, brincidofovir, ribavirin and so on.Among them, cidofovir and brincidofovir have obvious antiviral activity against adenovirus in vitro and in vivo, but further RCT results are still needed.Therefore, antiviral therapy of adenovirus pneumonia still needs further study.
