Why is active Renal Cell Carcinoma not an immediate rule out per the Cancer Risk Assessment Algorithm?
Even if a patient has active renal cell carcinoma, we can still proceed with organ donation, possibly even the affected kidney. Clinically we are more concerned with the size of the mass and the overall clinical picture.
Studies show that using these organs for transplantation is safe, with minimal malignant potential, and the benefits of receiving a kidney often outweigh the low risk of cancer recurrence, since small tumors have a very low risk of transmission.
