Core Tip	Prolonged symptoms after corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) or prolonged symptoms after COVID-19 (Long-COVID) in dialysis-dependent patients and kidney transplant (KT) recipients are important as a possible risk factor for organ dysfunctions, especially gastrointestinal (GI) problems. In this study, we observed that a GI manifestation of Long-COVID is a frequent condition in patients with dialysis-dependence and kidney-transplant recipients. Long-COVID was significantly more prevalent in peritoneal dialysis patients than in hemodialysis patient or KT cases. We also found that patients who experienced either abdominal pain or diarrhea had a longer duration of other GI manifestations of Long-COVID, suggesting a need for closer observation of these patients during COVID-19 infection.
