Abstract
Consistent with previous data, a high incidence of infections was observed after rituximab treatment in kidney transplant recipients. Most infections occurred within 6 months after rituximab initiation. With more than 3 years of follow-up, we were able to document a low incidence of secondary malignancies after rituximab with only 1 case in our cohort.
