摘要
We report a 12-year-old male with acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis (APSGN) occurring 1 year after a cadaveric renal transplant. Although recurrent and de novo renal transplant glomerulonephritides have been well described in large series of adult and pediatric renal transplant recipients, post-infectious glomerulonephritis has been rarely reported, and APSGN has never been reported in either adult or pediatric transplant series. We speculate on the reasons for the lack of occurrence of APSGN in renal transplant recipients.
