Highlights • CMV DNA is frequently detected in BAL fluid specimens from allo-HSCT. • CMV DNA detection in BAL fluids is comparable across pneumonia etiologies. • CMV DNA loads in BAL fluids are comparable across pneumonia etiologies. • CMV DNA load in BAL may predict attributable-pneumonia mortality.
