Acute Rejection and Antibody-Mediated Rejection in Lung Transplantation
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2017Despite advances in immunosuppression over the past 25 years, acute cellular rejection remains a common complication early after lung transplantation. Although acute cellular rejection has often not resulted in clinical signs or symptoms of allograft dysfunction, it has been widely recognized as a strong independent risk factor for the development of ...

Concomitant Acute Sinusitis and Acute Lung Rejection
Southern Medical Journal, 2000Two lung transplant recipients had concomitant acute sinusitis and acute lung rejection. Antibiotics and decongestants alleviated the sinusitis, but the symptoms of cough and dyspnea as well as spirometric defects necessitated treatment of acute lung rejection.

Acute rejection of a cryopreserved arterial homograft
Cell and Tissue Banking, 2014The use of arterial homograft is indicated especially in case of prosthetic graft infections after bypass surgery. We report the case of a patient who experienced the loss of a cryopreserved femoral artery caused by an acute rejection. This homograft had to be explanted 1 month after implantation because of an acute aneurysmal deterioration.

Acute rejection after heart transplantation
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2006Acute rejection (AR) seems to be less common with current immunosuppressive strategies; however, it remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the first year following heart transplantation. Despite great interest in noninvasive methods for detecting rejection, the endomyocardial biopsy remains the standard method for AR identification and ...

Acute Rejection, type I (Interstitial) [PDF]
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2000 y Dis. 2000;35(4):E13-E14 Fig 1. Tubulitis, ie, infiltration of tubular epithelium by lymphocytes, is the hallmark of type I interstitial acute rejection. Different classifications have been put forth for diagnosis of acute rejection. Among the most widely used are Banff, most recently revised in 1997 (published in Kidney International 1999), and CCTT (

Gross hematuria as a sign of acute rejection
Pediatric Transplantation, 2014AbstractIn the contemporary era of potent immunosuppressive regimens, previously encountered signs of renal allograft rejection such as fever and hematuria are rarely encountered. We report a teenager with severe recurrent acute humoral and cellular rejection whose presenting feature was gross hematuria with the presence of blood clots in the urine. We

Pathology of Acute Cellular Rejection
2016Protocol surveillance endomyocardial biopsies are performed to assess for rejection and thus allow the treatment of rejection prior to symptomatic cardiac dysfunction. The biopsies are performed with decreasing frequency post-transplant, usually stopping at 1–3 years post-transplant.

Eosinophils in acute renal allograft rejection
Transplant Immunology, 1994Tissue eosinophils have been previously implicated in allograft rejection and graft loss. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of eosinophils in acute renal allograft rejection. Data from 71 patients with 114 renal biopsies with acute allograft rejection were compared with those from 26 controls.

Allograft Rejection: Acute and Chronic Studies
2008Organ transplantation represents the only possible therapeutic intervention for a large number of end-stage renal diseases. The current immunosuppressive drugs are very efficient to overcome the acute rejection; however, their continuous administration exposes patients to a great risk of developing opportunistic infections and cancer.

Immune mechanisms of acute and chronic rejection
Clinical Biochemistry, 2016With the currently available immunosuppression, severe T-cell mediated rejection has become a rare event. With the introduction of modern antibody-detection techniques, such as the L-SAB technology, acute or hyperacute antibody-mediated rejection of the kidney are also seen infrequently. In contrast, chronic antibody-mediated rejection is considered to
