“…As the follow-up period of transplant patients with functioning grafts lengthens, the incidence of malignancy may also increase. Multiple unrelated malignancy cases with extremely different clinical presentations and courses have also been published in the literature (13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19).…”

The risk of de novo malignancy is significantly higher in patients who have undergone organ transplantation than in the general population. Long-term immunosuppressive treatment, in addition to age, genetic predisposition and infectious agents, plays a major role in the development of malignancy. Although skin and hemopoietic system cancers are common, atypical presentations of malignancies may occasionally be seen during long-term follow-up in patients with functioning allografts. In this report, four cases, each with more than one different primary malignancy (one patient with three malignancies and three patients with two malignancies), are presented.

Letters and replies sions we still wonder how well reported this information is Spurious hepatitis B surface antigen detection in adult to the wider renal community. Such a finding in clinical haemodialysis patients following vaccination practice can cause a major upset to the patient and to the running of a dialysis unit which could be avoided if the Sir, knowledge were more widely available. We thank our col-We read with considerable interest the letter by Riley et al. leagues for this letter and the correction regarding the [1] on the spurious hepatitis B surface antigen detection in previous literature. a haemodialysis patient.

However, Clwyd we disagree with Riley et al. [1] on several points: transient UK detection of hepatitis B vaccine following immunization has been previously described in dialysis patients [2] and was the finding that we observed in 12 adult haemodialysis patients. Note by the Editor-in-Chief Therefore, hepatitis B surface antigenaemia in adult haemodialysis patients is a frequent problem that we identified in The Editor-in-Chief is embarrassed that both Dr Esparza about 30% of the patients who have been vaccinated against and Dr Rutherford fail to carefully read NDT, since a similar hepatitis B viral infection (Engerix B). The final comment observation has been published by Brodersen et al. concerns the duration of antigenaemia. Although it was more Brodersen HP, Beckers B, Kö hler H, Dahlmanns C, frequent after 2-4 days of vaccination, it has been described Kruska L, Larbig D.
