INTRODUCTION
• Incidence of post renal transplantation UTI :– Varies considerably : 10-98%
» Actas Urol Esp. 1999 Feb;23(2):95-104
– Fallen over the past 30 years» Clin Transplant,2006 Jul-Aug;20(2):95-104

INTRODUCTION– Most common type of bacterial infection in renal allografts
recipients in the post-transplantation period. Fungi and viruses are less common cause of UTIs
– Bacteria account for : 44-47% of the infectious complications in early post-tx period
» Clin Transplant, 2006 Jul-Aug; 20(4):401-9
– Can involveLower and upper urinary tract or Allograft or native kidneys
‗ UTI : >6 months after transplantation : Ass. With– S.Cr >2mg/dl– A daily steroid dose>20mg– Polydrug immunosuppression– Chronic viral illness

Late urinary tract infections• Late urinary tract infection after renal transplantation in the
United States» Am J Kidney Dis. 2004 Aug;44(2):353-62
– Retrospective cohort study : 28,942 Medicare primary renal transplant recipients in the USRDS
– Cumulative incidence of UTI :• First 6 months after renal transplantation : 17%• At 3 years :
– 60%: Females– 47%: Males
– Late UTI : Significantly associated with an increased risk of subsequent death in Cox regression analysis

Risk Factors
Major risk factors include:• Indwelling bladder catheters• Handling and trauma to the kidney and ureter during
surgery • Anatomic abnormalities of the native or transplanted
kidneys:• Vesicoureteral reflux, stones, stents • Neurogenic bladder especially in diabetic patients • Possibly rejection and immunosuppression

Epidemiology of UTI in TX RecipientsValera
– Prospective evaluation of all the UTIs in 161 kidney Tx recipients for 2 years
– All patients received prophylaxis with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine
– Excluded asymptomatic bacteriuria– 41 patients (25%) suffered at least one UTI
episode – Incidence rate of 97 UTI episodes per 100 patient-
years

UTI Pathogens Differ in Renal Transplant Patients
– Comparision of data from all urine cultures from investigator’s institution's renal transplant recipients with the findings of UTI specimens from the general population
– 225 renal transplant patients• 52: At least one episode of significant bacteriuria • 157: Episodes of significant bacteriuria

UTI Pathogens– Etiology:
• Coliforms:76% of episodes• Pseudomonas: 12%• Enterococci: 6.4%• Group B streptococci:1.9%
– Non-coliform bacteria caused 24% of UTIs transplant recipients compared with only 11% in the general population
– Coliform bacteria in the transplant population: Significantly more resistant to amoxicillin (69% vs. 50.5%), coamoxiclav (17% VS. 7%), and trimethoprim (43% vs. 27%)

UTI: SYMPTOMS• Lower urinary tract symptoms (cystitis)– Frequency– Urgency– Dysuria– Hematuria– Suprapubic pain
• Upper urinary tract symptoms (pyelonephritis)– Rigors and/or pyrexia– Hematuria– Loin pain in native kidney– Pain over graft
![Page 13: UTI IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081721/551c608b49795907568b46d9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
UTI: DIAGNOSIS
• Must be Thorough and Timely• In pts with Pyelonephritis: Important to exclude
coexisting CMV infection• Graft rejection and UTI:– Allograft biopsy: Only tool that can differentiate
• Early post-transplantation UTI– Sample of the transplant organ storage perfusate for
culture (if available)

UTI: DIAGNOSIS -Imaging
– Plain X-ray and/or CT of kidney, ureter and bladder• Stones in transplanted or native kidneys
– CT of kidneys with intravenous contrast• Complex cysts of transplanted or native kidneys
– CT–PET• Localized infection of polycystic kidneys
– Micturating cystogram• Suspected reflux
![Page 15: UTI IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081721/551c608b49795907568b46d9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
UTI DIAGNOSIS- Interventions
– Cystoscopy (flexible or rigid), with or without retrograde ureteropyelogram• Careful inspection of urethra and/or bladder with or without
retrograde studies of native and/or transplanted systems– Urodynamics (pressure and flow cystometry with or
without video urodynamics)• Bladder dysfunction and/or outflow obstruction
– Measurement of urine free-flow rate (uroflowmetry) in all men with urinary tract infection• Bladder dysfunction and/or outflow obstruction
![Page 16: UTI IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081721/551c608b49795907568b46d9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
UTIDIAGNOSIS – Nuclear Studies
• Investigations for suspected post-transplantation UTI and their indications– Static renogram (DMSA scan)• Renal scarring
– Dynamic renogram (MAG3 scan)• Transplant ureteric obstruction
– Percutaneous transplant nephrostomy• Transplant ureteric obstruction and/or pyonephrosis
![Page 17: UTI IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081721/551c608b49795907568b46d9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
UTIDIAGNOSIS
– Urine Routine and Cultures for bacteria and atypical organisms.
– Measurement of cytomegalovirus load• Cytomegalovirus infection
– Urine and blood polymerase chain reaction and/or urine cytology for decoy cells• BK virus infection
– Chest X-ray, purified protein derivative test, polymerase chain reaction of early morning urine• Suspected tuberculosis

UTI: MANAGEMENT
• Empirical antibiotics (both Gram -ve and Gram +ve bacteria) → Targeted therapy
• Lower UTI without signs of sepsis: Outpatient• Eradication of organisms: Confirmed by a
follow-up culture• Remove ureteric stent if present and send for
culture• Polycystic kidneys: Lipophilic antibiotics

UTI: MANAGEMENT
• Treatment Duration:– 10-14 days: • Early UTI (<6 mths)• Lower UTI associated with systemic features• Pyelonephritis
– Upto 6 wks• Recurrent UTI• Relapsing UTI
![Page 26: UTI IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081721/551c608b49795907568b46d9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
UTI: MANAGEMENT• Surgical principles – Ensuring adequate urinary tract drainage, no
obstruction– Prevention and treatment of reflux of infected urine
to transplanted and native kidneys– Differentiate between obstruction and reflux– Detection and treatment of urinary tract calculi– Treatment of infected cysts of native kidneys by
drainage or nephrectomy– Timely removal of urinary catheters and ureteric
stents

Post-tx Fungal UTI• Fungal UTIs are uncommon in Tx Recipients. • May be asymptomatic but sometimes cause severe
morbidty. • Can be caused by Candida, Aspergillus, Mucor and
other rarer fungi.• Candida Spp are the most common organisms
causing fungal UTI.‗ Candida albicans accounts for 74%‗ Glabrata 8%‗ Parapsolosis7%‗ Tropicalis 3%

Management of candiduria
• Asymptomatic candiduria rarely requires therapy• Reducing risk factors such as removal of bladder
catheters or urologic stents and discontinuation of antibiotics
• Symptomatic candiduria should always be treated. • Treatment should be tailored according to….– Identified Candida species
– Whether localized or disseminated infection is present

Post-tx Viral UTIs• Viruses are an uncommon cause of UTIs in an
immunocompetent host; but they may present with serious complications in Transplant recipients.
• BK virus, adenovirus, and cytomegalovirus are predominant pathogens.
• Early diagnosis and treatment may prevent significant morbidity.
• The diagnosis of viral lower UTI is based on molecular techniques, and real-time PCR allows quantification of viral load.
• Cidofovir is becoming a drug of choice in viral UTIs

PGIMER EXPERIENCE• 2006-2007: 1270 patients– 231 infectious episodes in 196 patients– UTI: Most common infection within the first month
following transplantation– Predominant infection among all infections:• Bacterial infection: 59.3%
– UTI: Most common: 80% Overall, 13%: UTI
– Isolated graft tuberculosis:• 3 pts ;4.8% of all tuberculosis pts
– BKV Nephropathy:• 11 pts

UTI: RELATION TO GRAFT OUTCOME• Transplant pyelonephritis:– Independent risk factor for poorer long term graft
outcome Am J Transplant. 2007 Apr;7(4):899-907
• Recent study:– Retrospective analysis of 189 pts with min. f/u 36 mths– S. Cr, CrCl and 24-h proteinuria: No significant diff. b/w
