Vismodegib for Recurrent Locally Destructive Basal Cell Carcinoma in a Renal Transplant Patient

Abstract

Solid organ transplant patients are at an increased risk of developing cutaneous malignancies owing to long-lasting immunosuppression. The strongest increase in incidence (35-fold) has been reported for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma [1]. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) may occur even more frequently, especially during the first years after transplantation [2]. The hedgehog-inhibitor vismodegib has been safely used for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic BCC in immunocompetent patients since 2012 [3].
