Background: Infections in children with renal transplantation often lead to fatal complications. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and risk factors of infection after renal transplantation, as well as its impact on graft function.

This report describes a patient with Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) associated with renal amyloidosis, bilaretal surrenal haematomas and hypoaldosteronism which was clinically asymptomatic. The deposition of AA amyloide was found on the renal and bone marrow biopsies. Bilateral surrenal haematoma regressed after six month from the first events. Colchicine therapy controlled the attacks of the disease.
