Abstract
Urinary tract infections (UTI’s) are a common complication in kidney transplant recipients(KTRs). Risks of UTI that are unique to transplant population include a greater risk of graft dysfunction, and a predisposition to acute rejection. Furthermore, classical signs of acute graft pyelonephritis(AGPN) are masked by immunuosuppressive medications and even graft site pain is a late symptom due to graft denervation during transplantation
