Chronic immunosuppression may increase the risk of post-transplant infection and medication-related injury and may also be responsible for IBD in kidney transplant re-cipients despite immunosuppression. Differentiating the various forms of post-transplant colitis is challenging, since most have similar clinical and histological features. Drug-related colitis are the most frequently encountered colitis after kidney transplantation, particularly those related to the chronic use of mycophenolate mofetil, while de novo IBDs are quite rare. This review will explore colitis after kidney transplantation, with a particular focus on different clinical and histological features, attempting to clearly identify the right treatment, thereby improving the final outcome of patients.en-USAttribution-NonCommercial 4.0 InternationalInflammatory bowel diseaseKidney transplantationSolid organ transplantationCrohn diseaseUlcerative colitisMycophenolate mofetil colitisMycophenolate mofetilColitisCytomegalovirus
