Metastatic neuroendocrine tumor of small cell type in a kidney transplant recipient

Malignancy is a significant long-term complication of successful renal transplantation. Not only the rate is higher but also cases are highly aggressive. We report a case of metastatic, small cell, neuroendocrine tumor in a postrenal transplant patient with progressive left inguinal nodes and right...
