Core Tip	Fungal infections transmitted by contaminated organs represent an important source of complications after kidney transplantation. Among the others, allograft artery mycotic aneurysm (MA) deserves a special consideration as it may cause transplant loss and death. Elective management of non-complicated MA is controversial. For many years, graftectomy has been considered the only reasonable option. However, recent reports have shown that in carefully selected patients, surgical repair can offer excellent results. We herein describe a rare case of true MA of the transplant artery caused by Candida albicans and successfully treated by aneurysm resection and re-anastomosis.
