Cover Story: The recurrence of renal glomerular disease after kidney transplantation is one of the leading causes of graft loss. The principal glomerulonephritides that may recur after kidney transplantation are IgA glomerulonephritis, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, membranous nephropathy, and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. The purpose of this study is to address the rates of recurrence for all types of glomerulonephritis, detailing their characteristics and the treatments adopted. The results highlighted the different frequency of recurrence in relation to the glomerulonephritis considered, assessing the distinct characteristics and treatments adopted. In conclusion, this review confirms the severity of this disease. View this paper
