Abstract

The article presents a case study of a 35-year-old female diagnosed with renal disease caused by pre-eclampsia after receiving deceased donor kidney. The rarity of myeloid sarcoma in kidney without bone marrow disease development and donor transmitted malignancy in solid organ transplant is demonstrated. Possible explanations for the isolated involvement of the patient's kidney are also outlined.
