“…Cases of back table excision of small renal cell carcinomas after donor nephrectomy, followed by use of the kidney for transplantation have been reported. 345 - 348 Based on review of cancer registry reports, published literature and disease transmission cases reported to the OPTN, a 2011 OPTN DTAC Malignancy Subcommittee concluded, from a disease-transmission perspective, that “… kidneys with small, solitary, well differentiated renal cell carcinoma may be usable for transplantation provided the lesion itself is completely resected." 341 While partial (rather than complete) nephrectomy is often the treatment choice for small renal cell carcinomas for the purpose of nephron-sparing with comparable cure rates in affected individuals, persons planning kidney donation intend to undergo complete nephrectomy.…”

“…Total nephrectomy and donation may be offered in exceptional cases where rescue therapy is indicated or donor and recipient are well informed and decide to accept the risk of recurrence. Some case series describe donors with incidental renal masses in living and deceased kidney donors, which were resected with clear margins on the back table and where no local recurrence or metastasis were observed in long-term follow-up [1517]. …”
