Abstract

The authors report the case of a woman who was transplanted with a cadaveric kidney. It was a cyst on the kidney; a biopsy was performed: it was a carcinoma. The transplanted kidney was removed. The second case was a man, transplanted with a cadaveric kidney, with a tumor at the lower pole: a tumorectomy was performed: it was a angiomyolipoma.
