Objective: We describe the evolution of graft function in patients with transplant glomerulopathy measure by levels of serum creatinine, proteinuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate.
Method: Cross-sectional study conducted in the Regional General Hospital No. 46 IMSS. Included patients with kidney allograft and diagnosis of renal biopsy of transplant glomerulopathy grafting between January 1, 2006 to April 31, 2013 serum creatinine, proteinuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate at diagnosis, 6, 12 and 24 was recorded months. The results are shown with numbers, percentages and standard deviations.
Results: 42 patients were included. At 6 months of diagnosis, 14% decline in graft function and 7.1% graft loss. At 12 months, 17.9% graft loss, and at 24 months 36.3% had chronic graft dysfunction and graft loss as return to dialysis.
Conclusions: Evolution in our patients seems to be better to other series of cases reported in the literature.
