Urothelial carcinoma transmission via kidney transplantation

Abstract: Transmission of urothelial carcinoma via solid organ transplant has never been reported in the literature to our knowledge. We report a case of transmission of this tumour to a kidney recipient. The donor was a 37-year-old woman, victim of a subarachnoid haemorrhage. The recipient was a 21-year-old girl, with a history of chronic kidney disease secondary to neurogenic bladder. This fatality has been rarely described in literature, but never with this histological type of cancer. Nowadays, with the expanded cri… Show more

“…46 Transmission of malignancy in an immunosuppressed recipient usually occurs when the tumor is undetected before the organ donation or it may be misdiagnosed as a benign condition such as cyst. 24 This incidence of tumor transmission may also have risen in recent years with the increased donor age. 8 In our review, more than half of the tumors were donor in origin-including both donor-derived and donor-transmitted malignancies.…”

“…The most common type of RCC was clear cell carcinoma (27%, n=9) 7,10,12-14,20,21,31 while the other types were: sarcomatoid (15%, n=5), 2,8 angiosarcoma (6%, n=2), 18 renal papillary tumor (6%, n=2), 28,31 anaplastic (6%, n=2), 25,29 chromophobe (3%, n=1), 16 cystic adenocarcinoma (3%, n=1), 31 anaplastic adenocarcinoma (3%, n=1), 29 giant and spindle cell carcinoma (3%, n=1), 15 and undifferentiated (6%, n=2). 17,22 The type of renal cell carcinoma was not mentioned in the rest (22%, n=7), 2,6,19,31 Other tumors (31%, n=15) comprised 31% of the cases which included: undifferentiated cancer (20%, n=3), 6 invasive urothelial carcinoma (7%, n=1), 24 papillary transitional cell carcinoma of bladder (7%, n=1). 31 Thirty-three percent of the tumors were subsequently found to be benign and the type of cancer was not mentioned in the rest (33%, n=5).…”
