Abstract
This report describes a case of juvenile myelomonocytic leukaemia (JMML) on a background of both perinatally acquired HIV infection and congenital cytomegalovirus, and management of antiretroviral therapy during haematopoietic stem cell transplant. Peripheral blood HIV viral load remained below the lower limit of detection throughout and following transplant and is currently <20 RNA copies/mL. The child is currently in remission from JMML, but HIV DNA remains detectable despite myeloablative conditioning and sustained plasma HIV viral suppression.
