    Influenza A/H1N1 2009 rapidly created a pandemic after it was first reported in April 2009. This virus caused a wave of panic around the world because of the rapidity of transmission and the characteristics of the dying victims, which were apparently healthy young adults. The pandemic caused thousands of laboratory-confirmed cases and many deaths. Despite this high prevalence, few reports of infection and clinical results in renal transplant recipients have been described in the literature. Early recognition and prompt administration of oseltamivir may prevent severe respiratory disease. Here we describe a renal transplant recipient who presented early after symptom onset who was successfully treated with oseltamivir and broad spectrum antibiotics without dire clinical consequences.
