Factores de riesgo y supervivencia libre de tumor en pacientes con trasplante renal de cadáver

Abstract

[Background] There is an agreement in the fact that cancer incidence in transplant recipients increases at a rate disproportionately greater than in the general population. Several clinical studies have identified cancer risk factors, such as age, male gender, tobacco, UV radiation, viral infections, previous malignancies, intensity and duration of immunosuppressive therapies, HLA matches and time in waiting list.
