摘要：
We described an extraordinary case of invasive aspergillosis (IA) after commercial kidney transplantation. Massive infestation by angiotrophic fungi with morphological features of Aspergillus caused fungal arteritis of renal blood vessels with detachment of the kidney graft from the iliac artery with ipsilateral leg ischemia, necessitating graft removal and recurrent vascular surgery to restore the blood supply to the leg. A literature review comprising various features of invasive aspergillosis and ethical aspects of commercial kidney transplantations is elucidated in this paper.
