Abstract:
Renal allograft aspergillus is a rare entity with a high mortality due
to life-threatening complications in forms of disseminated infections,
aneurysmal rupture and bleeding. Immediate recognition with a prompt
surgical and medical intervention is strongly advocated. We report a
case of renal aspergilloma causing obstructive uropathy after two months
of transplantation in a 64 -year- old patient who was managed
successfully with antifungal therapy without surgical intervention. Up
to our knowledge this is the first case of early localized renal
aspergilloma post renal transplant which was uneventfully treated by
medical therapy alone.
Key Words: Kidney Transplant, Aspergillosis.
