ABSTRACT=<p>Tissue-invasive cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease represents a well-recognized complication after kidney transplantation. However, direct involvement of the urogenital tract and CMV-ureteritis occur less frequently. Nephrogenic adenomas are benign lesions of the urinary tract preferentially reported in kidney transplant recipients. We herein report a second case of a 33-year-old male kidney transplant recipient with acute post-renal allograft dysfunction due to CMV-positive ureteral nephrogenic adenoma. A causal connection might be suspected but remains to be proven.</p>
