ABSTRACT
In high and middle-income countries, approximately one in ten people suffer from chronic kidney disease, mainly caused by diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension or glomerulonephritis. Diabetes mellitus is considered the most important risk factor. End-stage renal disease, requires renal replacement therapy (peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis or kidney transplantation). Renal transplantation is the best tool for definitive treatment of these patients. There are few causes of chronic kidney disease that contraindicate renal transplantation, for example, anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody glomerulonephritis in patients with Alport syndrome. Despite the risk of recurrence of glomerulonephritis, there is no contraindication for a first transplant in patients with primary glomerulonephritis, regardless of histological type. The type of glomerulonephritis is an independent predictor of graft loss, the highest risk is for focal and segmental glomerulonephritis and dense deposit disease. This paper presents the case of a 21-year-old male patient with cystic fibrosis known since he was two years old, who later developed chronic kidney disease secondary to focal segmental glomerulonephritis demonstrated by renal biopsy at 15 years of age, without immunological diseases as background, who received a kidney transplant from a related living donor and approximately 24 hours after the surgical procedure the patient presented graft loss.
