Document: COVIDâ€19, the ongoing pandemic caused by SARSâ€CoVâ€2, has had a dramatic impact on transplant systems in the most affected countries, namely Italy. Preliminary data indicates that patients on hemodialysis therapy as well kidney transplant (KTx) recipients appear to be particularly susceptible to COVIDâ€19 illness due to immunosuppression and coexisting conditions. Currently, there is a lack of data concerning the biologic behavior, recurrence and longâ€term morbidity of COVIDâ€19 and there are no experiences of transplants in patients who have previously had COVIDâ€19. We report what is likely to be the first case of a KTx performed after a recent COVIDâ€19 illness.
