Renal Transplant Failure Due to Infiltrating Kaposi Sarcoma.
Overview
abstract
Kaposi sarcoma is one of the most common malignancies seen during the posttransplant period, and it usually manifests in its cutaneous form. Renal transplant involvement is rare, whereas renal transplant parenchymal involvement causing transplant dysfunction is exceptionally rare. We report a case of visceral Kaposi sarcoma that led to renal transplant failure due to neoplastic infiltration of the renal allograft.
