BACKGROUND: Capillary deposition of C4d is an important marker of antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) following heart transplantation (HT). There are two immunopathologic assay methods for detecting C4d: frozen-tissue immunofluorescence (IF) and paraffin immunohistochemistry (IHC). The clinical significance of discrepancy between the results of IF and IHC has not been understood.
METHODS AND RESULTS: We reviewed 2187 biopsies from 142 HT recipients who had biopsies with assessment of both IF and IHC staining. Among them, 103 (73%) patients had negative IF and IHC C4d staining (Negative Group) and 32 (23%) patients had positive IF but negative IHC staining (Discordant Group). At the time of positive biopsy, 6 (19%) Discordant patients had graft dysfunction, compared to 5 (5%) Negative patients (p = .022). Cumulative incidence of cellular rejection at 1 year was comparable (31% vs. 29%, p = .46); however, cumulative incidence of AMR was significantly higher in the Discordant group (21% vs. 4%, p = .004). Overall 1-year survival was comparable (90% vs. 96%, p = .24); however, freedom from heart failure (HF) was significantly lower in the Discordant group (70% vs. 96%, p < .001).
CONCLUSION: The Discordant group showed higher rates of graft dysfunction, AMR and HF admission than the Negative group.
