Abstract
A detailed histological assessment of the 1-hour posttransplant biopsy has been made in 65 cadaver and related renal transplants. There was a lack of correlation between the numbers of polymorphonoclear leucocytes per glomerulus, the presence and severity of thrombi, vascular changes, interstitial scars, the presence or absence of immune deposits, and the renal function of the patients at 90,180 and 365 days. The only positive finding was a statistically significant correlation between the glomerular tamponade at 90 days and the renal function. This was not borne out at 180 and 365 days.
