Abstract
ABSTRACT
We report five cases with different clinical presentations of COVID-19 infection in renal transplant patients. Initially a typical clinical presentation, in the form of CNS manifestations (amnesia, behavior change followed  by  left sided paresis) for the 1st case, GIT manifestations for the 2nd case and chest and cardiac manifestations for  the 3rd case. The other two cases similarly presented with chest manifestations but with different clinical courses. Our  patients had a favorable outcome, which may provide a reference value for treating COVID-19 patients.
