Under treatment with antiviral medicine (ganciclovir/penciclovir), intravenous gamma globulin and methylprednisolone and the use of BiPAP ventilator, his symptoms improved, but after removing penciclovir his symptoms went out of control, and the patient died of respiratory failure 22 days after admission.<h4>Conclusion</h4>CMV infection/reactivation can occur in patients long after receiving anti-CD19/22 CAR-T cell therapy, and induce fatal pneumonia, which reminds us of the late side effects associated with immunosuppression after CAR-T cell infusion. This evidence concerns the gene CD19 and respiratory failure.
