Abstract
Acute AMR can be a fulminant form of lung rejection, and survivors are at increased risk of developing CLAD. The constellation of acute lung injury, DSA and capillary endothelial C4d deposition is compelling for acute AMR in recipients with allograft dysfunction. This clinicopathologic definition requires validation in a multicenter cohort, but may serve as a foundation for future studies to further characterize AMR.
