J M Mooy, and J C Hagenouw-Taal, and L D Lameijer, and J M van Turnhout

Chronic granulocytic leukemia developed four years after renal transplantation in a patient, who had been treated with immunosuppressive agents since then. The low incidence of leukemia in comparison with malignant lymphoma in renal transplant recipients and some pathogenetic mechanisms are discussed.
