Quality of life assessment in renal transplant: review and future directions.

abstract：:Renal transplantation was performed in a 24-yr-old woman with type AA systemic amyloidosis. Renal biopsy at 11 yr post-transplantation showed no amyloid recurrence, but the presence of mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis and focal segmental glomerular sclerosis. Renal function was satisfactory with the exceptio...
