Article Synopsis
- IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and minimal change disease (MCD) are the most frequently reported glomerular diseases following COVID-19 vaccinations, especially mRNA vaccines, along with others like membranous nephropathy.
- A global registry was created to collect anonymized data on patients with glomerular diseases suspected after vaccination, focusing on vaccination details, kidney function, and treatment outcomes.
- Results show that while IgAN and MCD have a better chance of kidney function recovery and reduced proteinuria within 4–6 months post-vaccination, causality remains unproven despite a temporal link.
A urinoma is an unusual complication following renal transplant biopsy that can easily be missed or mistaken for a hematoma. In addition to trauma to the renal collecting system, a degree of urinary tract obstruction is required for urine to leak into the surrounding tissues and form a urinoma, which can in turn cause pressure on surrounding structures. This case report describes a patient who developed ipsilateral leg swelling several months after a renal transplant biopsy.

The aims of this study were to describe the clinical features of this complication and identify clinically useful genetic markers so that these drugs can be avoided or so that monitoring can be intensified in high-risk patients.
Methods: Inflammatory bowel disease patients were recruited from 89 sites around the world.
