“…Apart from immunodeficiency resulting from the use of immunosuppressive drugs, RTx patients often suffer from numerous urological malformations, vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) that is a permanent symptom after RTx, and are exposed to invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures involving the urinary tract. That is why urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common infectious complication among RTx recipients with up to 60% prevalence during the first year post-transplant [1,2]. UTIs are important not only because of the scale of the problem but due to their potential negative influence on graft and RTx recipients' outcomes.…”

“…The most common infection after RT is urinary tract infection (UTI), which has an incidence rate of 45% to 72%. [4][5][6] In addition to UTIs, sepsis, pneumonia, and surgical field infections are also common. [7][8][9][10] Posttransplant infections create significant morbidity and mortality for affected patients.…”

“…Przynajmniej 1 epizod zakażenia w pierwszym roku po przeszczepieniu nerki odnotowuje się u 50-80% wszystkich pacjentów, u których stosowany jest standardowy schemat leczenia immunosupresyjnego [4,5,8,19,26]. W badaniach własnych dokonano analizy między średnią dawką glikokortykosteroidów stosowanych u pacjentów przez pierwsze 3 miesiące po przeszczepie a częstością występowania zakażeń u tych chorych.…”
