Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover: Normal Liver Enzymes After Transplantation Can Be Associated with Pathologies Requiring Intervention.
Background:Liver biopsies are employed post-transplant generally to evaluate abnormal liver enzymes (LE); however they are not without risk. Whether post-transplant protocol biopsies (PB) serve any…2016 American Transplant Congress
Digital Kidney Biopsy Evaluation: Quantification of Macrophage Prevalence in a Cross Sectional Study.
Standardized markers based on quantitative and qualitative evaluation of immune cell mass and localization in kidney biopsies may help in diagnosis and prognosis in transplantation…2016 American Transplant Congress
The Impact of Microvascular Inflammation (MVI) in Kidney Transplant Biopsies (KTxBx) Is Independent of Time Post-Transplant.
Detection of MVI in a KTxBx, often associated with antibody mediated rejection, is associated with a poor prognosis for kidney graft survival. However most information…2016 American Transplant Congress
Decellularized Rat Liver Scaffolds Support Multilineage Xenogenic and Heterogenic Cell Growth.
University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD.
Background:Recent years have seen a proliferation of methods leading to successful organ decellularization. Nonetheless, the ability to reproducibly generate a robust recellularized construct remains challenging.…2016 American Transplant Congress
Treatment of Post-Transplant Focal Glomerulosclerosis: The Effect on Histopathology Lesions and Podocyte Foot Process Effacement.
Background: Post-transplant Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is associated with increased risk for renal allograft failure. It has been reported in the literature that podocyte foot…2016 American Transplant Congress
Clinical, Histologic and Charge Endpoints When Populations with Hepatitis C Recurrence Are Treated with Direct-Acting Antiviral or Interferon Based Therapies.
University of Kansas, Kansas City, KS.
Background: While the primary endpoint for patients transplanted for Hepatitis C (HCV) has been established as sustained virologic response (SVR), different pathways have existed to…2016 American Transplant Congress
Criteria for the Diagnosis of Microvascular Inflammation (MVI) in Kidney Transplant Biopsies (KTxBx).
The presence of MVI (Banff glomerulitis "g" score and Banff peritubular capillary "ptc" score) in KTxBx, often related to antibody mediated rejection (AMR), is associated…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
Complexity of Hylinosis in Renal Transplant Biopsies: Donor Age, Glomerular Disease, and Time.
Arteriolar hyalinosis lesions (ah) are often interpreted as a sign of calcineurin inhibitor toxicity even though they are induced by other conditions. We studied the…2016 American Transplant Congress
Everolimus with Low-Dose Tacrolimus vs. a Standard Immunosuppressive Regimen: Renal Histology at 6 Months in De Novo Renal Transplant Patients.
Morphologic changes in transplant protocol biopsies provide early evidence of renal damage. This study examined the renal histology of de novo patients 6 months post…
