| Abstract | A small renal cell carcinoma was transplanted inadvertently with a kidney from a living donor and was treated with partial nephrectomy. Secondarily, tuberculosis of the renal allograft appeared, which was followed by nephrolithiasis. The kidney was left in place, immunosuppressive treatment was continued and renal function is normal more than 8 years after transplantation, with no sign of the cancer progressing or reactivation of the tuberculosis. |
