Abstract
Abstract This article shows the evolving history of the Banff classification for allograft biopsies and gives helpful clues on properly diagnosing each classification. In today’s pathology practice, a general pathologist who does not regularly sign out many transplant kidney cases may be unsure of the details that the nephrologist may need to know for proper patient treatment. This article also discusses the latest Banff classification and the differential diagnoses one may encounter when diagnosing an allograft biopsy.
