Complications involving the colon occurred in 28 of 325 @entity1 who received renal transplants. @entity8307 , the most common complication, affected 15 @entity1 , two of whom required surgery. Three instances of @entity4436 were complicated by free perforation in two cases, and by @entity4570 in one. @entity698 occurred in two cases. The other complications were @entity548 (from @entity7261 or @entity2817 ), nonspecific @entity1960 , and @entity63 . Spontaneous colonic perforation did not occur. Two thirds of the @entity1049 occurred within 30 days after transplantation. All cases of @entity694 , however, occurred later than one month after transplantation. It is concluded that @entity8307 is the most common @entity1049 in renal transplant recipients, that it usually occurs early, and that it carries a good prognosis. @entity694 occurred later in this series and were treated successfully. All cases of @entity63 were part of terminal multiorgan system failure.
