Successful Management of Post Transplant Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis With Plasma Exchange and Rituximab
Background: Post-transplant Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is associated with renal allograft loss. Currently, optimal treatment remains controversial. We propose a management protocol that includes treatment…2015 American Transplant Congress
Utility of Anti-Phospholipase A2 Receptor (Anti-PLA2R) ELISA Testing in Predicting Post-Transplant Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy (IMN)
Backgound: IMN is frequently associated with autoantibodies to the podocyte antigen, PLA2R. Anti-PLA2R associated IMN is diagnosed by detecting PLA2R antigen within glomerular immune complexes…2015 American Transplant Congress
