Kidney transplant is the treatment of choice for chronic kidney disease. Cardiovascular disease, infections, and postransplant de novo neoplasms are the main causes of death in transplant patients. The most frequent kind of post kidney transplant neoplasms are lymphoproliferative processes and cutaneous neoplasms. Another type of neoplasm, that of kidney tumours, also represents approximately 3% of all neoplasms in transplant patients. A review of the kidney transplants from our unit performed between July 1985 and October 2012 which presented a mass in the kidney graft was carried out, confirming the diagnosis by taking a biopsy of the mass. In all the cases, the underlying pathology, kidney function and immunosuppressive treatment were analysed. This article aims to give importance to monitoring and management of the appearance of possible tumour masses in kidney transplants.
