Core Tip	Systematic review of the safety and efficacy of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) in kidney transplant (KT) recipients revealed 11 case reports, which have shown the effective role NPWT in the management of wound dehiscence, lymphocele, urine leak from ileal conduits and leg ulcers. Because of the lack of robust evidence on the safety and efficacy of NPWT in KT patients, prospective multicentre studies recruiting large number of patients is recommended to examine the role of NPWT in the treatment of wound-related complications in KT recipients. The efficacy of negative pressure incision management system, NPWT with instillation and endoscopic vacuum-assisted closure system remain in investigational stage.
