Background. Chronic renal allograft failure remains a major challenge to overcome. Factors such as donor quality, delayed graft function (DGF), acute rejection, and immunosuppression are known to affect longterm outcome, but their relationship to histological damage to graft outcome is unclear.Methods. Protocol kidney biopsies (n=112) obtained at 3 months after transplantation yielded 102 with adequate tissue. Histology was scored by the Banff scheme, and compared with implantation biopsies (n=91), repeat 12-month histology (n=39), decline in serum creatinine and serial isotopic glomerular filtration rate, onset of chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN), and actuarial graft survival censored for death with a functioning graft.Results. At a median follow-up of 9.3 years, 20 patients had graft failure and 26 died with a functioning graft. Banff chronic nephropathy was present in 24% of 3-month biopsies, and was predicted by microvascular disease in the donor, cold ischemia, DGF, and acute vascular rejection (P
