Background
Histologic grading of acute allograft rejection in pancreas needle biopsy: correlation to serum enzymes, glycemia, and response to immunosuppressive treatment.
(Papadimitriou JC et al.:Transplantation. 1998 Dec 27;66(12):1741-5. )

Background
Progressive graft sclerosis/chronic rejection (CR) determines the useful lifespan of technically successful pancreas allografts.
Episodes of acute rejection are suspected to result in accelerated graft sclerosis.

Chronic rejection/graft sclerosis
Histological correlate: Increasing fibrosis Clinical correlate: Progressive
deterioration of glucose metabolism requiring return to insulin dependence (graft loss).

Objective of the current study
To understand better the relationship between histological features of acute rejection and the development of graft sclerosis.

Conclusions
Histological findings in bx for graft dysfunction strongly correlate with long-term outcome.
Diffuse acinar inflammation is the most common finding associated with chronic rejection.

Conclusions (Cont….)
Inflammation involving only fibrous septa (sparing acini and arteries) may be responsive to antirejection treatment and/or may not lead to graft sclerosis.
