Abstract
Infections are Achilles heel of kidney transplant recipients. Opportunistic fungal infections are increasingly recognized in these patients. We report a case of kidney transplant recipient with skin and soft tissue infection caused by Pyrenochaeta romeroi, a dematiaceous fungi. Infection by this organism is rare.
