AB  - We present a case of 29-year-old female who underwent an ABO-incompatible living 
      kidney transplantation from her father. The serum creatinine (s-Cr) level of this 
      patient was stabilized about 1.1-1.2 mg/dl during the first 3 months after the 
      transplantation. Thereafter, the function of allograft was deteriorated 
      gradually. A biopsy performed on post-transplant day (PTD) 520 to evaluate a rise 
      in creatinine revealed an interstitial nephritis and chronic renal allograft 
      nephropathy. The renal function worsened persistently, although we increased the 
      dosage of immunosuppressant subsequently. The following biopsy performed on PTD 
      630 showed a suspicion of BK virus nephropathy, with a mass of tubular epithelial 
      nuclear inclusions and an interstitial nephritis. The diagnosis of BK virus 
      nephropathy was confirmed on the immunohistochemistry staining using anti-SV40 
      antibody and PCR analysis. Despite reducing the immunosuppressants, the function 
      of the allograft worsened progressively and was lost on PTD 912.
