To fully assess the true risk of prostate cancer transmission in during renal transplantation.
METHODS:

A full review of all existing literature relevant to the topic.
RESULTS:

There has not been a single documented case of transmission of prostate cancer during renal transplant. Prostate cancer in deceased organ donors has an incidence estimated between 3\% and 18.5\% and over 100 transplants have been performed using organs from donor with proven prostate cancer without issue.
CONCLUSION:

Transmission of prostate cancer through kidney transplantation seems very unlikely. The risks of remaining on the waiting list are outweighed by a transmission risk and the potential benefit makes the case to have clear guidelines about donor prostate malignancy when accepting potential organs.},
