Abstract

A 60-year-old Caucasian male with end stage renal disease resulting from longstanding hypertension underwent his first post-mortal renal allo-transplantation in 2000, which was complicated by a steroid resistant acute rejection episode and subsequently resulted in transplantectomy within three months thereafter. In 2003, he underwent his second post-mortal renal allo-transplantation. From 2006 on he suffered from recurrent episodes of transplant pyelonephritis. In course of time his serum creatinine rose slowly and proteinuria developed. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved
