The two most common causes of graft dysfunction after the first year were recurrence of the original disease, usually malignancy, and chronic rejection. Most episodes of rejection can be controlled with medical treatment; however, 16 patients of 34 patients who experienced rejection episodes after the first year required retransplantation. Eleven of these 16 are currently alive and free of jaundice. Another common cause of late graft dysfunction is biliary strictures.
