Abstract:

Purpose

We report on a kidney transplant recipient treated with fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for recurrent urinary tract infections.

Methods

FMT was administered via frozen capsulized microbiota. Before and after FMT, urinary, fecal and vaginal microbiota compositions were analyzed.

Results

The patient remained without symptoms after FMT.

Conclusions

Underlying mechanisms of action need to be addressed in depth by future research.
