1
ROLE OF ALLOGRAFT BIOPSY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF
TRANSPLANTED PATIENT
Parmjeet Randhawa Professor, Division of
Transplantation Department of Pathology Universit
y of Pittsburgh
2
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

3
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

4
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

THE BANFF SCHEMA FOR RENAL ALLOGRAFT PATHOLOGY
  • REJECTION RELATED CATEGORIES
  • -Acute or chronic antibody mediated rejection
  • -Acute or chronic T-cell mediated rejection
  • NON-REJECTION RELATED
  • -Acute tubular necrosis
  • -Drug toxicity, Donor derived pathology,
  • -Infections, Recurrent disease
  • -Technical vascular complications

ACUTE REJECTION
  • Acute T-cell mediated rejection
  • Acute cellular rejection

9
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

10
HISTOLOGIC CRITERIA FOR DIAGNOSIS OF ACUTE T-CELL
MEDIATED REJECTION
  • Predominantly mononuclear infiltrate
  • Presence of parenchymal damage
  • Occurrence of subendothelial inflammation in
    venules, arteries

11
GRADING OF ACUTE TCMR-1
  • Severity of inflammation
  • Intensity of tubulitis
  • Disruption of tubular architecture
  • Presence of arteritis

12
GRADING OF INTERSTITIAL INFLAMMATION
  • Limit assessment to cortex unless medulla alone
    sampled
  • Ignore areas in continuity with capsule
  • lt10 area is assigned grade 0
  • Grades 1, 2, 3 are 10-25, 26-50, gt50
  • Area is evaluated not the intensity

INFLAMMATION IN AREAS OF SCARRING
15
IMPLICATIONS OF LESION SCORING IN AREAS WITH
FIBROSIS
  • DeKAF study 265 bx from 7 centers (7.5/-6.1 y)
  • 72 biopsies had tatr scoresgt0(conventional t
    0)
  • 50 had iatr scores gt0 (conventional i 0)
  • Inclusion of modified scores in data analyses
    yielded prognostic information
  • Matas et al. Am J Transplant 2010 10 315

16
GRADING OF TUBULITIS
  • Define area of maximal involvement
  • Avoid tubules cut tangentially
  • Grades 0-3 (0, 1-4, 5-10, gt10)
  • Look for disrupted tubules (2 foci, i2, i3)
  • Atrophic tubules historically ignored
  • Do not overlook non-atrophic areas or lymphocytes
    with blast transformation

17
GRADING OF INTIMAL ARTERITIS
  • Look closely if interstitial hemorrhage,
    glomerulitis, or PTC inflammation
  • Caveat added to report if lt 4 arteries
  • Grade v1 (lt25) (mild to moderate)
  • Grade v2 (gt25) (severe)
  • Grade v3 fibrinoid change, necrosis, transmural i
    (transmural intimal arteritis)

18
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


19
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

21
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

22
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

33
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.

34
MOLECULAR DIAGNOSIS TCMR
  • MDx potentially valuable non-invasive tool
  • Dx TCMRsensitivity 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

43
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




44
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

45

46
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

ASSIGNING PRIMARY CAUSE OF CGD HAS LIMITATONS
  • ah often simplistically taken as CNIT
  • - virtually all patients hypertensive
  • - 1/3 rd are diabetic
  • - variable proportion are ECD of age gt50
  • C4d ve CGD cases are classified as CAMR
  • -many have had prior episodes of TCMR
  • -most will have hypertension /or diabetes

123
CHRONIC ALLOGRAFT NEPHROPATHY
  • Coined at 1991 Banff Meeting
  • - to recognize multifactorial nature CGD
  • - inability to determine etiology in all cases
  • Widely variably used to denote a process
    assumed to have no prev/therapeutic measures
  • Banff 2005 proposed elimination suggested
    ISTA-NOS (no evidence of specific pathology)

124
GRADING OF CAN/ISTA NOS
  • Interstitial fibrosis (ci 0-3) (lt5, 25, 50, gt50)
  • Tubular atrophy (ct 0-3) (0, lt25, 50, gt50)
  • Arteriosclerosis (cv 0-3) ( luminal occl)
  • Arteriolar hyalinosis (ah 0-3) (, severity)
  • Tx glomerulopathy (cg 0-3)(lt10,25,50,gt50)

125
PROGNOSTIC IMPORTANCE OF HISTOLOGIC GRADING
126
GROUPING OF LESIONS INTO CLUSTERS
  • Tubulo-interstitial inflammation (i, t)
  • Microcirculation lesions (g, v, ptc, cg)
  • Scarring hyalinosis lesions (ci, ct, cv, ah)
  • Based on 234 unselected biopsies graded for acute
    and chronic Banff lesions
  • Sis et al. Am J Transplant 2010 10 421

PATHOGENESIS OF CAN/ISTA NOS
  • Multifactorial parenchymal INJURY
  • Exhausted REPARATIVE ABILITY due to impaired tub
    regen or vascular remodeling
  • Persistence of injury inflammation, progressive
    fibrosis, and GS
  • Self-perpetuating hyperfiltration injury
    culminating as graft failure

130
CAUSES OF RENAL ALLOGRAFT DYSFUNCTION
  • REJECTION RELATED CATEGORIES
  • -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

131
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

132
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
