“…In renal transplant recipients, adenomas occur rarely, and the vast majority appears in nephrogenic systems (5) and are related to the use of azathioprine (6). Three cases of post-transplant HA have been reported (7)(8)(9) that were attributed to the use of cyclosporine (7). Immunosuppressive effects increase the incidence of malignancy in transplant patients (10).…”

“…Consequently, there is an in increase in prolactin blood levels, suggesting infl uence in the steroidogenic function of the ovary and thus affecting the physiological state of the breast. Its chronic use could develop malignant cutaneous tumors and benign mucocutaneous proliferative diseases (fi broadenomas, hypertrichosis, gingival hypertrophy, papillomas, sebaceous hyperplasia and epidermic cysts) [13,16].…”

“…The etiology of multiple fibrodenomas of the breast is not fully understood and 17% of patients may have this condition 12 . There are some reports of multiple fibroadenomas associated with the use of immunosuppressants [11][12][13] . Therefore, cyclosporine-induced fibroadenomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of topical and ectopic breast tumors in users of this kind of medication.…”
