title: Management of urinary tract infections and lymphocele in renal transplant recipients.
abstract: The most frequent infectious complication after renal transplantation is urinary tract infection.

The incidence of lymphocele after renal transplantation varies, and its treatment is still controversial. Management options are discussed.
