Cutaneous metastasis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma after kidney transplant: a case report and review of the literature.

Abstract

The death rate from cancer has increased as the population has aged. This also holds true for transplant recipients. Some believe that cancer will soon surpass cardiovascular disease as the major cause of mortality after transplant. Therefore, it is incumbent upon us to appropriately screen patients with age-appropriate evidence-based examinations. Additionally, those patients with suspicious presentations should be judiciously evaluated to discover a cure for cancer as quickly as possible.
