title: [Renal transplantation and tumour transmission].
abstract: The transplanted kidney can be a vector of various diseases including tumours. These tumours, arising from donor cells, can be benign or malignant renal tumours or extrarenal tumours transmitted to the recipient in the form of occult metastases in the transplant. The authors review the statistical risks, prevention and therapeutic management of these tumours transmitted during renal transplantation.
