    Author: Napathorn S, Praditpornsilpa K, Yenrudi S.
    Journal: J Med Assoc Thai; 1996 Jan; 79(1):44-8. PubMed ID: 8867402.
    Abstract:
    Tuberculosis of a transplanted kidney is a rare and serious complication. Search for renal tuberculosis as the cause of deterioration of graft function is mandatory in a renal transplant recipient with tuberculosis of other organs e.g. pulmonary tuberculosis in this patient. Renal histopathology is required for the diagnosis. Treatment with anti-tuberculosis drugs can improve renal function. Drug interactions should be considered when rifampicin is administered with cyclosporin A.
