Systematic Pathological Component Scores for Skin-Containing Vascularized Composite Allografts.
Successful application of skin-containing vascularized composite allografts (VCA) depends on accurate assessment of the graft status typically based on skin biopsies. A working classification (Banff…2016 American Transplant Congress
Reversibility of Acute Kidney Rejection According to the Banff 2013 Classification: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
1CRCHUM, Montreal, QC, Canada; 2Statsciences, Montreal, QC, Canada; 3HMR, Montreal, QC, Canada.
Background: Vascular involvement of the allograft has classically been regarded as a poor prognostic factor in acute kidney graft rejection. Cell-mediated endarteritis often coexists with…2016 American Transplant Congress
Arteriolar Hyalinosis on Renal Transplant Protocol Biopsies Is Not Associated with Tacrolimus Exposure.
Previous studies have implicated the development of arteriolar hyalinosis (AH) following kidney transplantation to chronic calcineurin inhibitor nephrotoxicity. Here, we examined the association between tacrolimus…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Treatment of Borderline Lesion in Protocol Biopsies Did Not Improve the Outcome in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Introduction. Up to 30% of patients with protocol biopsies and stable renal function have borderline lesions. His relationship with acute rejection remains uncertain, as does…2016 American Transplant Congress
Implications of Subclinical Borderline Acute Cellular Rejection Detected in Protocol Biopsies on Graft Outcomes.
Background: The effects of subclinical borderline acute cellular rejection (BACR-defined as I1T1 per Banff criteria) detected in protocol biopsies (Bx) on subsequent graft function and…2016 American Transplant Congress
Renal Graft Survival According to Banff 2013 Diagnostic Categories in Indication Biopsies.
1Nephrology, Hospital del Mar, Barcelona, Spain; 2Pathology, Hospital del Mar, Barcelona, Spain.
The impact of acute rejection in kidney graft survival is well known, but the prognosis of other diagnosis is uncertain. We evaluated the frequency and…2016 American Transplant Congress
Is Pretransplant Determination of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Tumor Grade Using Needle Biopsy Reliable for Transplant Candidate Selection? Analysis of 217 Liver Transplant Recipients.
Department of Surgery, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA.
Objective: Despite the prognostic significance of tumor grade and vascular invasion for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), preoperative needle biopsy (PNB) is not routinely utilized…2016 American Transplant Congress
Elevated Intragraft Expression of Innate Immunity and Cell Death-Related Markers Characterizes Deceased Donor Conditions and Is a Risk Factor for Adverse Graft Outcome.
Background: The innate immune response is increasingly being recognized in allograft injury after kidney transplantation. We aimed to establish the relationship of innate immune gene…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Effect of Everolimus and Tacrolimus Exposure Levels on Renal Histology Parameters 6 Months Post-Transplantation.
We examined renal histology scores in patients with different exposure levels of everolimus (EVR) and tacrolimus (TAC) over 6 months.Renal transplant patients (N=613) were randomized…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Quilty Effect in Pediatric Heart Transplant Recipients.
Purpose: The Quilty effect is defined as the presence of a nodular endocardial infiltrate of lymphocytes in an endomyocardial biopsy (EMB), and has been described…
