    Abstract:
    58 renal transplant patients were submitted to dermatological check-up investigations at regular intervals over a mean period of 26.2 months after surgery. 98% of the case material showed dermatological complications. In an analysis of the findings in 55 patients with infectious complications, viral infections occurred in 40, bacterial in 30 and mycotic infections in 20 patients. Dermatological manifestations of non-dermatological complications were mainly due to immunosuppressive therapy. The data stress the necessity of optimum cooperation between dermatologists and the attendant physician in the case of renal transplant patients.
