The reference treatment is transplantectomy with discontinuation of immu- nosuppression and resumption of haemodialysis. Under certain condi- tions, partial transplantectomy could appear be an alternative to the reference treatment. Key-Words: Kidney transplantation, . . . . . . évaluation radiologique des autres organes prélevés et transplantés [11]. CONCLUSION Le développement d’un cancer sur un rein transplanté est une com- plication rare, volontiers tardive et potentiellement métastatique. Cela impose une surveillance échographique périodique régulière et prolongée des reins transplantés. Le traitement de référence est la transplantectomie radicale avec interruption de l’immunosuppression et reprise de l’hémodialyse. Le dépistage échographique précoce de tumeurs de petite taille et de faible grade (intérêt de la biopsie percutanée) devrait autoriser une transplantectomie . . . --2401,4,300,2699,12004
