Abstract
The risk of a malignancy developing as a consequence of long-term immu nosuppression after allograft transplantation is well documented. To o ur knowledge we report on the first cardiac allograft recipient to und ergo radical cystectomy with lower urinary tract reconstruction using a continent Kock ileal reservoir with bilateral ureteroileal urethrost omy for squamous cell carcinoma that developed 4 years after transplan tation.
