Summary: | Bacterial infections are considered to be a serious complication in patients with immunodeficiency after kidney transplantation. Bacterial respiratory tract infection has been most common after kidney transplantation in recent years. The paper analyzes the results of kidney allotransplantation in 55 patients followed up for one week to 12 months. The recipients were found to have all known species of the bacterial flora. All the patients were postoperatively given broad-spectrum antibiotics. Antibiotic therapy was corrected after isolating the strains of microorganisms and determining their susceptibility. The therapy was continued within 7-10 days postoperatively. |
