“…An increase in the detection of mostly incidental tumors in renal transplants is associated with the increasing use of transplants from elderly donors and long-term immunosuppression [6]. Moreover, monitoring alone (regular ultrasound screening) can enhance the number of incidental tumors detected [6,7]. The mean time to diagnosis of the tumor after transplantation is 10 years, although, in our case, it took 16 years [7].…”

“…Generally, they have less aggressive nature in transplanted patients, independently of their location, except for the papillary tumor RCC, in which an increased aggressiveness is reported. Papillary renal cell carcinoma represents 5-15% of overall kidney neoplasm [22,23]. Moreover, papillary tumours are more frequent in the transplanted population than in the general population and are usually associated with acquired renal cystic disease (ARCD) of the native kidneys rather that allograft [20].…”

“…Percutaneous radiofrequency or cryoablation therapy is wellestablished treatment for small and exophytic lesions since it is less invasive and has a low mortality rate besides it avoids renal ischemia associated with vascular clamping which is occasionally necessary [23]. Minimization or withdrawal of Calcineurin inhibitors and replace it with mTOR inhibitor (Sirolimus or Everolimus) is recommended [23].…”
