De novo malignant tumours in renal transplant recipients. 1982

M J Cassidy, and P B Disler, and C R Swanepoel, and J E Jacobson, and A R Pontin

Malignant tumours developed in 8 of the 209 patients who received renal transplants at Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town, between October 1967 and December 1979. One of these patients developed disseminated carcinoma of the breast, a disease which had been present in the donor. He was therefore excluded from the study. At 3,4% the incidence of de novo malignant tumours in transplant recipients is half that previously reported in South Africa. No case of reticulum cell sarcoma or intracranial lymphoma was found.

D002277 Carcinoma A malignant neoplasm made up of epithelial cells tending to infiltrate the surrounding tissues and give rise to metastases. It is a histological type of neoplasm and not a synonym for "cancer."

D002280 Carcinoma, Basal Cell A malignant skin neoplasm that seldom metastasizes but has potentialities for local invasion and destruction. Clinically it is divided into types: nodular, cicatricial, morphaic, and erythematoid (pagetoid). They develop on hair-bearing skin, most commonly on sun-exposed areas. Approximately 85% are found on the head and neck area and the remaining 15% on the trunk and limbs.

D002285 Carcinoma, Intraductal, Noninfiltrating A noninvasive (noninfiltrating) carcinoma of the breast characterized by a proliferation of malignant epithelial cells confined to the mammary ducts or lobules, without light-microscopy evidence of invasion through the basement membrane into the surrounding stroma.
