Successful treatment of a renal allograft abscess with antimicrobial agents alone and appropriate follow-up imaging

© 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC..

A renal allograft abscess is a relatively rare condition. Appropriate antimicrobial therapy and drainage are recommended for treating renal abscesses. However, drainage can be challenging, depending on the location of the abscess. We present the case of a young female kidney transplant recipient who was successfully cured of a renal allograft abscess, using antimicrobial agents and appropriate follow-up imaging, without the need of any risky procedures.
