Figure 1 At the time point of the diagnosis of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), the use of immunophilins was as follows: (1) Of 26 renal graft recipients with TMA, 2 patients were on tacrolimus (□) and 24 on cyclosporine (CsA), of which 5 were on Sandimmune® () and 19 were on Neoral® (). (2) Of 24 renal graft recipients with graft dysfunction not resulting from TMA, 5 were on tacrolimus and 19 were on CsA, 2 of which were on Sandimmune and 17 were on Neoral. (3) Of the 19 renal graft recipients who did not have episodes of graft dysfunction, 1 was on tacrolimus and 18 were on CsA, 13 of whom were on Sandimmune and 5 were on Neoral. The difference between column 1 and 3 is statistically significant (chi-square = 9.09, P = ).

Figure 2 The lumen of the arteriole in the upper half of the center of the field is occluded by a fuchsinophilic mass (fibrin thrombus). In contrast, the arteriole in the lower portion of the field contains red blood cells. The interstitium is edematous (×600, trichrome).
