Although rare, renal cell carcinoma has been found during renal recovery for cadaveric organ transplantation. Previously, we reported this incidence to be 0.9%. In one cadaveric donor, the liver and left kidney had been transplanted before the discovery of renal cell carcinoma (T1) in the right kidney.
