Abstract

Solid organ transplantation volumes in the United States have been steadily increasing over the past decade. Rigorous evaluation of potential transplant recipients must be performed to ensure appropriate allocation of solid organs for transplant. Because active malignancy is a contraindication for most solid organ transplantations, appropriate cancer screening should be included as part of the pretransplant assessment for both potential transplant recipients and donors. This article provides a summary of the current state of solid organ transplant-related breast cancer screening in the United States.
