	<abstract>&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Times New Roman;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#0033ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Background:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;Since the outbreak of COVID-19, various treatments have been frequently reported for patients infected with this virus, especially in transplant patient recipients. Investigating o the literature and organ transplant patients&amp;nbsp;with COVID-19, it could pave the way to understanding, handling, and treatment of COVID-19.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color:#0033ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;We had a brief review of the literature on immunosuppressive therapy in kidney transplants infected with COVID-19 based on the PubMed Database by keywords &amp;ldquo;kidney, transplant, COVID-19, and immunosuppress&amp;rdquo; after hospitalization&amp;nbsp;of a kidney transplant reception infected with COVID-19. He&amp;nbsp;had already been recorded in the Organ Transplant Registry (ID&amp;ne; 64510) of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences /Iran.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;color:#0033ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;We reported the clinical course of a 45-year-old man with a history of kidney transplant and immunotherapy who was infected with COVID-19 with&amp;nbsp;respiratory infections&amp;nbsp;and positive RT-PCR (Real-time polymerase chain reaction).&amp;nbsp;He was treated with hydroxychloroquine, Kaletra, Cellcept, and Prednisolone for 5 days, and finally discharged from the hospital. In addition, the reviewing of&amp;nbsp;48 papers with 745 samples showed that immunosuppressant medications alone could be a therapeutic choice in kidney transplants infected with COVID-19&amp;nbsp;with careful management.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#0033ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;The patients with organ transplantation infected with COVID-19 may show different clinical signs, clinical course, and prognosis due to underlying diseases and the use of immunosuppressant medications.&amp;nbsp;It might be best to continue taking the immunosuppressant medications but to modify them based on patients conditions such as clinical symptoms, laboratory results, paraclinical examinations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</abstract>
