Clinical study of 39 patients with malignant tumor after renal transplantation / 肿瘤研究与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumor after renal transplantation.Methods The clinical data of 2106 renal transplants in 1945 patients undertaken in our hospital from September 1978 to December 2009 was retrospectively studied.Results Of these 1945 patients, 39 cases were diagnosed as having malignant tumor (incidence 2.0 ％).The interval between transplantation and clinical diagnosis ranged from 8 to 124 months with a median of 57.0 months.Among the 39 cases of malignancy, there were 22 urinary system carcinomas, 8 digestive system carcinomas,2 lung cancers,2 breast cancers,2 lymphomas,1 dura small cell carcinoma,1 pleura poorly differentiated carcinoma and 1 metastatic carcinoma of liver with unknown primary tumor. Surgery was conducted in 28 patients,of which 16 were survived but the other 12 patients died of metastasis ranged from 3 months to 96 months (median,33 months) after operation.11 cases without operation died within from 3 d to 36 months (median,5 months) after diagnosis.Conclusions The incidence of malignant tumors in renal transplant recipients increased markedly.The most common type of the malignant tumors is urinary system carcinoma.The key measure of success in treating malignancy after renal transplantation is early diagnosis and surgical resection.
