Outcomes of kidney transplantation have been improved during the last decade mainly by the new potent immunosuppressants. Main causes of graft loss are chronic humoral rejection (CHR), calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) nephrotoxicity (CNINT), de novo or recurrent glomerulonephritis (GN) and the death with functioning graft (DWFG).
