Abstract:
Objective To analyze and summarize the risk factors and treatment options of post-renal transplantation. Methods We reviewed 445 renal transplant cases from May 1991 to October 2016 from our hospital. And we had 24 patient received renal transplantation elsewhere who developed malignant tumor afterwards. Among them, 14 patients were male, and 10 patients were female. The age ranged from 42 to 61 years old, with an average age of 54.5 years. 22 patients underwent hemodialysis, with an average of 14.6 months; 2 patients underwent peritoneal dialysis, and the duration is 15 months. 19 patients underwent the transplant for the first time, and 5 patients underwent second transplant. 13 of them developed tumors, and the incidence is 2.9%. In the 24 tumor patients: 19 were urothelial cancer, accounting for 79% (9 renal pelvis and ureter cancer, 8 primary ureter urothelial cancer and 2 primary bladder urothelial cancer), transplant kidney cancer 1 case, thyroid cancer 1 case, colon cancer 1 case and lymphoma 1 case. We analyzed the incidence rate of tumor, type of tumor, time to malignant tumor after surgery, time to diagnosis of tumor after surgery, usage of immune-suppressive medications and prognosis to stratify risk factors of malignant tumor development.Results Only 1 patient with lymphoma underwent chemotherapy, other 23 patients underwent radical operations. All the patients underwent eradicative surgery of malignant tumor, except one patient with lymphoma underwent chemotherapy. Among the 21 patients with urinary system cancers: 2 patients underwent open surgeries (1 patient underwent semi-urinary system resection, 1 patient underwent transplant kidney partial resection), 2 patient underwent TURBT, 17 patients underwent laparoscopic renal pelvis and ureter kidney resection. 3 patients underwent secondary TURBT in one year, 2 patients underwent 3 operations due to recurrent. 18 of them remain healthy; 5 patients had tumor recurrence after the surgery and are deceased 3 years later.Conclusions Post-transplantation patients are susceptible to malignant tumor development, which is closely related to the use of immune suppressant after transplantation. The key to optimal treatment is to detect tumor at an early stage.
