Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) remains a serious event. We report a case of occurrence of TMA in the immediate postoperative period after a living-related renal transplantation. A distinguished feature of the case was major, early involvement of the retina with marked by decreased visual acuity along with thrombocytopenia and renal functional impairment. The syndrome was reversible with plasma exchange and conversion from tacrolimus to sirolimus. The patient's renal function is excellent at 11 months after transplantation. Decreased visual acuity and cotton wool exudates may be the first manifestation of posttransplant TMA.
