title: [Urinary tract infections in the first three months following kidney transplantation].
abstract: Eighty kidney transplants were examined. During the first three months following transplantation, urinary tract infections occurred in 68 patients (85%). Fifty patients (74%) have had a few episodes of infections in the form of either suprainfection or recurrence whereas in the remaining patients there was only one episode of urinary infection. No difference in infection incidence was noted in both men and women. Ninety percent of urinary infections occurred within the first 4 weeks following transplantation. The most frequent cause of the urinary tract infections were gram-negative bacilli of Enterobacteriaceae family. In case of multiple infections there was a high percentage of gram-positive cocci.
