The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is evolving very quickly and has affected healthcare systems worldwide. Many uncertainties remain about transplantation from a SARS-CoV-2-positive donor as only a few cases have been reported. Here, we present the successful transplantation of 2 kidneys from a 52-year-old male donor with active (2 weeks of COVID-19-like symptoms and positive nasopharyngeal swab SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction on the day of organ recovery) SARS-CoV-2 disease. The immediate postoperative course of both recipients was uneventful. This case emphasizes that patients with SARS-CoV-2 may be safe organ donors.
冠状病毒（COVID-19）大流行发展非常迅速，已对全球医疗保健系统造成影响。由于仅报告了少数几例病例，因此对于来自 SARS-CoV-2 阳性供体的移植仍存在许多不确定性。在这里，我们介绍了 2 例成功移植的病例，供体为 52 岁男性，患有活动期 SARS-CoV-2 疾病（COVID-19 样症状持续 2 周，器官采集当天鼻咽拭子 SARS-CoV-2 聚合酶链反应阳性）。两名受者的术后即刻过程均无异常。此病例强调，患有 SARS-CoV-2 的患者可能是安全的器官供体。
