Patient and allograft outcomes were compared with those of 60 controls. Results. Mean follow-up after renal transplantation was 87 +/- 39 months for patients with lupus and 88 +/- 54 months for controls. Actuarial 10-year patient (83% vs 85%; P = .62) and death-censored graft survival rates (73% vs 69%; P = .36) were not significantly different between lupus patients and controls.
