Disseminated Ureaplasma polyarthritis in a renal transplant recipient.

Ureaplasma infection is an under-recognized pathogen in kidney transplant patients. A high index of clinical suspicion should be employed to identify Ureaplasma infection, especially in those with secondary hypogammaglobulinemia, as this is often missed due to its lack of growth on standard media and the need for molecular testing. In patients with prior B-cell depletion, routine monitoring for B-cell recovery to identify risk factors for opportunistic infections is indicated.
