Abstract

Two cases of successful cadaveric renal transplantation in patients with the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome have previously been reported in the literature [1,2]. The first patient [1] had an almost uneventful outcome, while the second one [2] had to be treated with highdose methylprednisolone for biopsy-proven cellular rejection. The optimal immunosuppressive regimen in patients with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome remains unknown. We report here the case of a Wiskott-Aldrich patient who underwent living-related renal transplantation. This patient however developed a number of infectious and non-infectious complications which led to his death 3 months after transplantation.
