After renal transplantation is producing a series of metabolic alterations that could potentially put at risk the survival of the graft and severely compromise the health status of the renal transplant patient. Most important are Metabolic complications of bone and mineral metabolism and the disturbances of lipid metabolism. This study aims to investigate the weight gain, changes in bone mineral density and Hyperlipidemia in these patients, 119 kidney transplant patients were followed for 5 years of follow-up.In conclusion high overweight and obesity prevalence occurs after transplantation especially during the first year, there is also a large increase in hyperlipidemia, as well as a continuous loss of bone mass in all areas measures, which carries a high risk serious fractures, threatening kidney graft addition, the quality of life of patients
