American Journal of Transplantation, 06/16/09
Reichman TW et al. - A case of acute humoral rejection in the kidney allograft after a combined liver–kidney transplant is described. Although humoral rejection was treated using plasmapheresis, intravenous immunoglobulin and rituximab, the kidney required 3 months to recover function and finally progressed to chronic allograft nephropathy. A heightened index of suspicion for acute humoral rejection of the renal allograft is necessary when performing combined liver–kidney transplants to highly sensitized patients due to previous organ transplants.
