The colonization of vancomycin-resistant before and after solid organ transplantation is associated with an increased risk of its infection. The prevalence of these bacterial colonies in renal transplant recipients are as high as that in intensive care unit patients. However, it is unclear whether donors with vancomycin-resistant colonization can be considered in renal transplantation. Herein, we report a case wherein a kidney was transplanted from a deceased donor with vancomycin-resistant colonies in urine and rectal swab. After transplant, the recipient had no vancomycin-resistant infection and maintained relatively good renal function.
实体器官移植前后耐万古霉素菌的定植与感染风险增加相关。这些细菌菌落在肾移植受者中的流行率与重症监护病房患者一样高。然而，耐万古霉素菌定植的供体是否可用于肾移植尚不清楚。在此，我们报告一例病例，该例中一个肾脏移植自一名尿液和直肠拭子中存在耐万古霉素菌菌落的脑死亡供体。移植后，受者未发生耐万古霉素菌感染，肾功能维持相对良好。
