Abstract
Malignancies are common after renal transplant because of immunosuppression. Renal cell carcinoma is common but occurs in the native kidney. Carcinoma in the transplant kidney is less common but has been reported with an average interval of 3 to 4 years after transplant. We report a case of renal cell carcinoma occurring in transplant kidney 11 years after renal transplant and it was treated with partial nephrectomy. The patient responded well to this conservative approach.
