Core Tip	The number of patients with a failed allograft returning to dialysis increases over time. Studies suggest that such patients are at increased morbidity and mortality risks compared with their transplant-na?ve, incident dialysis patients. This review provides a critical literature overview of the risks and benefits of early versus late dialysis re-initiation, immunosuppression weaning, and transplantectomy in patients with a failed allograft. Based on currently available literature, suggested guidelines for the management of this unique patient population are presented.
