Background The surveillance of kidney transplant patients depends on function of different
immunologic markers like co-stimulatory molecules. These molecules may also be
associated with post kidney transplant viral related outcomes. Objectives The aim of this
study was to investigate the possible associations between co-stimulatory molecule gene
polymorphisms and viral infections in kidney transplant patients.
