ABSTRACT
Early loss of renal grafts is generally caused by vascular or immunologic complications. We describe two patients who received a kidney transplant from the same donor and lost their grafts during the first posttransplant week. Both cases presented necrotizing graft vasculopathy without inflammatory element. The donor was a 21-year-old woman who regularly used "ecstasy" over a 2-year period. After an extensive work-up to investigate the potential causes of graft loss, we considered the possibility of ecstasy being the cause of these two renal-graft losses.
