    Abstract:
    Central nervous system (CNS) infection is a common complication following renal transplantation. Successful management of a brain abscess usually requires a combination of antibiotics and surgical drainage for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. We report the successful treatment of a patient with multiple brain abscesses with piperacillin/tazobactam without surgical intervention.
