A case of kidney allograft dysfunction in a recipient with a prior lymphocele is described. We attribute it to a Page kidney phenomenon caused by a constrictive pericapsular fibrosis.

To our knowledge, only 1 case of Page kidney in renal allograft due to peritransplant hematoma has been described in the literature.
