Abstract

A 50-year-old man with polycystic kidney disease had living donor kidney transplant. Simultaneous right sided native nephrectomy was done to give a space for graft kidney. He developed three episodes of urinary tract infections within 2 months after transplant; one episode was associated with septic shock and rise serum creatinine. Two urine culture results taken two weeks apart revealed Klbsiella pneumoniae. It was sensitive to amikacin and resistant to nearly all antibiotics including quinolone, imepenum, colistin, cefepime and tigecycline. The remaining left native kidney was removed as the cysts were nidus to hide bacteria; no more recurrence after second nephrectomy.
