ABSTRACT
Purpose: Development of malignancy is one of the key issues in the renal transplant recipients after long term follow up. Methods: We reviewed our renal transplant registry for the incidence of de novo malignancy after renal transplantation. Results: Among the 1006 renal transplant recipients from July 1969 until January 2006, 47 cases of de novo malignancy developed in 43 patients: stomach cancer (7 cases), Kaposi's sarcoma (6), post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD, 7), primary liver cancer (4), thyroid cancer (3), skin cancer (4), colon cancer (3),), renal cell carcinoma (2), bladder cancer (2), anal cancer (2), sarcoma (3) and one malignancy case from conjunctiva, pancreas, uterine cervix, and tongue, respectively. Mean age at the time of diagnosis of cancer was 45.8+/-12.0 years (mean+/-standard deviation). The cancer diagnosis was made at 97.1+/-73.6 months after the renal transplantation. We have high prevalence of cancers with suspected viral etiology - i.e., Kaposi's sarcoma, PTLD, primary liver cancer and uterine cervix cancer. Conclusion: Careful surveillance of malignancy in renal allograft recipients is highly recommended.
