The recent evolution in immunosuppression therapy has led to significant improvement in short-term kidney allograft outcomes; however, this progress did not translate into similar improvement in long-term graft survival.The latter, at least in part, is likely to be attributed to Toiletry Bags immunosuppressant side effects.In this review, we focus on the histologic manifestations of calcineurin inhibitor and mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor toxicity.We discuss the pathologic Cleaners (Cage features attributed to such toxicity and allude to the lack of highly specific pathognomonic lesions.Finally, we highlight the importance of clinicopathologic correlation to achieve a meaningful pathologic interpretation.
