Recurrence and Outcome of Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Glomerulonephritis After Kidney Transplantation.

Introduction: Recurrence of anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) glomerulonephritis in the kidney graft is a rare event, described in limited reports. The aim of this study was to evaluate, in a large cohort of patients with long follow-up, the risk of recurrence of anti-GBM disease, the risk factors associated with clinical recurrence, and the long-term patient and graft survival.

Methods: This was a multicenter retrospective study.
