title: Allograft antiglomerular basement membrane glomerulonephritis in a patient with Alport's syndrome.
abstract: A patient with Alport's syndrome and chronic renal failure received a cadaver kidney graft. Six months after the transplantation he developed 'de novo' crescentic glomerulonephritis mediated by antiglomerular basement membrane antibodies. This rare complication may be attributed to sensitization against usual antigenic determinants of the graft glomerular basement membrane.
