ABSTRACT

The formation of renal and perirenal abscesses is closely associated with well-known risk factors. Patients that undergo kidney transplantation generally present with a base pathology that, together with immunosuppression management, makes them vulnerable to infection, thus increasing their morbidity and mortality. Emphysematous perinephritis is defined as a perirenal collection that is accompanied by gas. The following is a clinical case of emphysematous perinephritis in a patient having undergone kidney transplantation.
