RESUMO
This is the first report of an ovarian carcinoma developing in a patient immunosuppressed by Cyclosporin A. Thirteen months before the diagnosis of malignancy, the patient received a living related donor kidney transplant whose rejection was controlled by Cyclosporin A and prednisone. The tumor was rapidly fatal five weeks from diagnosis. The literature on malignant transformation in the immunosuppressed patient is reviewed with emphasis on a gynecologic perspective.
