ROLE OF ALLOGRAFT BIOPSY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF TRANSPLANTED PATIENT
![Page 2: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
OPTIMAL RENAL ALLOGRAFT BIOPSY TECHNIQUES
• US guidance: serious AEs including death
• 2 cores obtained with 18 gauge needle ideal
• Evaluate adequacy of sample in biopsy suite
• Saving frozen tissue desirable for AMR, necessary for diagnosis ICGN
• EM is needed to characterize glomerular disease & demonstrate PTC-BMD
![Page 3: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
ADEQUACY CRITERIA FOR RENAL ALLOGRAFT BIOPSY
• 10 gloms, 2 arteries, examined in 7 slides• Suboptimal biopsies can be diagnostic
Cortex -severe tubulitis with no glomeruli
-single artery with intimal arteritis
Medulla -BKVN
-diffuse C4d

GENERAL APPROACH
• Determine if it is adequate
• Low power grade i, ci, ct, cv
• Medium to high power evaluation needed to score g, t, v, cg, ah
• Synthesize findings & correlate clinical data

ACUTE T-CELL MEDIATED REJECTION
• An alloimmune reaction mediated by cell mediated immunity
• Subclinical with normal creatinine • Laboratory evidence of graft dysfunction• Severe cases may show fever, graft
tenderness, leukocytosis and eosinophilia
![Page 10: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
HISTOLOGIC CRITERIA FOR DIAGNOSIS OF ACUTE T-CELL
MEDIATED REJECTION
• Predominantly mononuclear infiltrate
• Presence of parenchymal damage
• Occurrence of subendothelial inflammation in venules, arteries
![Page 11: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
GRADING OF ACUTE TCMR-1
• Severity of inflammation
• Intensity of tubulitis
• Disruption of tubular architecture
• Presence of arteritis
![Page 12: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
GRADING OF INTERSTITIAL INFLAMMATION
• Limit assessment to cortex unless medulla alone sampled
• Ignore areas in continuity with capsule
• <10% area is assigned grade 0
• Grades 1, 2, 3 are 10-25, 26-50, >50%
• Area is evaluated not the intensity
![Page 13: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

INFLAMMATION IN AREAS OF SCARRING
![Page 15: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
IMPLICATIONS OF LESION SCORING IN AREAS WITH FIBROSIS
• DeKAF study 265 bx from 7 centers (7.5+/-6.1 y)• 72% biopsies had tatr scores>0(conventional t = 0)• 50% had iatr scores >0 (conventional i = 0)• Inclusion of modified scores in data analyses
yielded prognostic information

![Page 16: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
GRADING OF TUBULITIS
• Define area of maximal involvement
• Avoid tubules cut tangentially
• Grades 0-3 (0, 1-4, 5-10, >10)
• Look for disrupted tubules (2 foci, i2, i3)
• Atrophic tubules historically ignored
• Do not overlook non-atrophic areas or lymphocytes with blast transformation
![Page 17: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
GRADING OF INTIMAL ARTERITIS
• Look closely if interstitial hemorrhage, glomerulitis, or PTC inflammation
• Caveat added to report if < 4 arteries
• Grade v1 (<25%) (mild to moderate)
• Grade v2 (>25%) (severe)
• Grade v3 fibrinoid change, necrosis, transmural i (transmural intimal arteritis)
![Page 18: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
GRADING OF TCMR IN BANFF SCHEMA
• Borderline: criteria higher grade not met• Type IA: t2 (i2 or i3) • Type 1B: t3 (i2 or i3)• Type IIA: v1 (any i or t score)• Type II B: v2 • Type III: transmural inflam/fibrinoid• PTC C4d indicates concurrent AMR
![Page 19: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
BORDERLINE CHANGES SUSPICIOUS FOR ACUTE REJECTION
• Looks like rejection but criteria I, II not met• i1 with any t grade OR t1 with any i • Most often t1 tubulitis and i1 inflammation • For biopsies with i2,3 look for t2,t3,v1• Theoretically i1,t2,t3 & i2,i3,t1 allowed• Some cases evolving or treated higher AR
![Page 20: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

SHOULD BIOPSIES WITH BORDERLINE CHANGES BE TREATED AS REJECTION?
• Scheweitzer et al. 58% CR, 30% PR
• Saad et al. 63% CR, 13% PR
• Dooper et al. 24% definite rejection
• Gaber et al. 8/8 (100%) CR
![Page 22: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
REASONS FOR HETEROGENEITY IN RESPONSE TO TREATMENT
• Borderline changes SUSPICIOUS for AR• Non responsive cases may be non-immune
(dehydration, ATN, CNI, infection) • AMR, underlying CR • Responsive cases may be early stage TCMR• Examples of sampling error where biopsy did
not sample more significant i or t lesions

INTIMAL ARTERITIS NOT ALWAYS TCMR
• 56% had donor specific antibodies • 33% had PTC C4d diffuse or focal
Can be pure AMR, pure TCMR, or mixed AMR-TCMR

IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STUDIES IN ACUTE REJECTION
• Not necessary for Dx (except C4d)
• May occasionally help d/d PTLD vs AR
• Intraglomerular CD68 worse prognosis
• CD20 not correlation AMR or response
• CD4/CD8/CD68: stage of evolution, patient selection, immunosuppression.
![Page 34: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
MOLECULAR DIAGNOSIS TCMR
• MDx potentially valuable non-invasive tool• Dx TCMR:sensitivity & specificities of 70-90%• Disagreements in an average of 20%• Reflect sampling issues, arbitrary grading
thresholds & low frequency diagnoses • Provides information that is complementary

CALCINEURIN INHIBITOR TOXICITY
1. Cyclosporine
2. Tacrolimus
![Page 43: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
CALCINEURIN INHIBITOR CAN CAUSE FUNCTIONAL TOXICITY
• Elevation in serum creatinine• Blood levels Tac/Csa may be elevated• Biopsy shows no specific pathology• Reduction of dosage restores serum creat• Graft dysfunction attributed to vasospasm
![Page 44: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
CALCINEURIN INHIBITORS CAN CONTRIBUTE TO ATI
• CNI induced AKI confirmed in animals• Clinically, prolonged cases of DGF can recover
once calcineurin inhibitors switched• Likely mechanism is reversal of drug induced
vasoconstriction
![Page 45: Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of Transplantation Department of Pathology](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5681432e550346895daf9edf/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

TUBULAR VACUOLIZATION IS NOT SPECIFIC FOR CNI
• Use of plasma expanders (dextran, mannitol), radiocontrast media, IVIG preps containing sucrose as a stabilizer, hyperosmolar sucrose infusions
• Frequently seen in context of ACR • Occurs in donor biopsies • Patients maintained on Azathioprine • Attributed to CNI by exclusion

GIANT MITOCHONDRIA
• Association with CNI confirmed in rats
• Lesion of limited diagnostic utility, since it is uncommon, not readily recognized, & may needs EM to exclude lysosomes
• Not specific: described in azathioprine Rx, glomerulonephritis, acute tubular necrosis

-Acute & chronic Ab mediated rejection
-Acute & chronic T-cell mediated rejection
• NON-REJECTION RELATED CATEGORIES
-ATN, CNIT, Infections, GN, Recurrent native disease, donor derived pathology

RENAL BIOPSY REPORTS SHOULD USE STANDARDIZED TERMINOLOGY
Example of non-standardized report:
Allograft kidney, needle biopsy:
• Interstitial inflammation and tubulitis c/w ac acute rejection (?TCMR, AMR, ?grade)
• Patchy interstitial fibrosis & tubular atrophy

A STANDARDIZED BIOPSY REPORT
• Diagnosis: acute T-cell mediated rejection
• Grade severity: Banff grade 1 (g0,i2,t3,v0)
• Worse tubulitis compared to prior biopsy
• Chronicity: severe interstitial fibrosis (cg2, ci3, ct3, cv2)
We use standardized Banff scoring templates -saves time & facilitates large databases
