    Snippet: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with high morbidity and mortality worldwide in both the general population and kidney transplant recipients. Acute kidney injury is a known complication of COVID-19 and appears to most commonly manifest as acute tubular injury on renal biopsy. Coagulopathy associated with COVID-19 is a known but poorly understood complication that has been reported to cause thrombotic microangiopathy on rare occasions in native kidneys of patients with COVID-19.
    Document: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with high morbidity and mortality worldwide in both the general population and kidney transplant recipients. Acute kidney injury is a known complication of COVID-19 and appears to most commonly manifest as acute tubular injury on renal biopsy. Coagulopathy associated with COVID-19 is a known but poorly understood complication that has been reported to cause thrombotic microangiopathy on rare occasions in native kidneys of patients with COVID-19. Here, we report the first case of biopsy-proven thrombotic microangiopathy in a kidney transplant recipient with COVID-19 who developed acute pancreatitis and clinical features of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia. The patient recovered with supportive care alone.
