ABSTRACT
Since its emergence in December 2019 many end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients have been infected with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Herein, we describe the case of an ESRD patient who received a kidney transplant after recovering from COVID-19. We described the clinical course of COVID-19 and kidney transplant management, including the patient's symptoms, laboratory results, computed tomography, and antibody profiles. He recovered well, without complications. Chest computed tomography, PCR, and IgG results indicated no recurrence of COVID-19 during the subsequent two weeks. Therefore, kidney transplantation is feasible in an ESRD patient who has recovered from COVID-19, under a normal immunosuppressive regimen.
