A Case of Very Early Kidney Allograft Dysfunction

A 24-year-old Thai man who had been receiving hemodialysis 3 times per week was admitted to the hospital for deceased donor kidney transplantation. Chronic kidney disease due to posterior urethral valves had been diagnosed at the age of 5 years, but he had been lost to follow-up until the age of 20 years. At that time, hemodialysis therapy was initiated, and he was placed on the waiting list for deceased donor kidney transplantation. The donor was a 60-year-old woman without medical comorbid conditions.
