Malignancy after Heart Transplantation: Analysis of 24-Year Experience at a Single Center
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 06/04/09
Yagdi T et al. - Posttransplant malignancies have different risk factors and variable clinical impact. Older age at transplantation, smoking history, and more episodes of treated rejection were related to increased incidence of nonlymphoid malignancy incidence after heart transplantation, whereas no variable was associated with lymphoid malignancy. Skin cancers have a benign course, while solid organ malignancies and lymphomas carry an unfavorable prognosis.
