Transplantation is associated with an increased risk of cancer. The major factor favouring carcinogenesis is the degree of immunosuppression rather than the nature of the drug used. A large number of these tumours are virus-induced, reflecting an immune system deficiency in combating viral infection. The transplanted patient should be closely followed, both early after transplantation and consistently thereafter, for early detection of such complications.
