To define the relative frequency of phenotypes of transplant glomerulopathy, we
retrospectively reviewed the findings in 1036 biopsies for clinical indications from 1320 renal
transplant patients followed in our clinics between 1997 and 2005. Transplant
glomerulopathy, defined by double contours of glomerular basement membranes (D), was
diagnosed in 53 biopsies (5.1%) from 41 patients (3.1%) at a median of 5.5 years post-
transplant (range 3.8–381 months). In cases with D, we studied the frequency of circulating …
