Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Allograft rejection remains enigmatic and elusive following pancreas transplantation. In the absence of early technical pancreas graft failure, pancreas allograft rejection is the major cause of death-censored pancreas graft loss both short- and long-term. Despite this circumstance, there are variations in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreas rejection. In this article, we summarize recent literature, review common practices, and discuss various management algorithms.
