Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- First kidney transplantation

- Asymptomatic bacteriuria

Exclusion Criteria:

- Re-transplantation or combined organ transplantation

- History of abnormal structure or function in native kidney, ureter and bladder system

- Kidney transplant recipients with history of recurrent urinary tract infection or
incomplete course of urinary tract infection treatment before transplantation

- Hemodynamic unstable
