Feedback:
The most common malignancies among transplant recipients are skin cancers and lymphomas. The patient should be assessed annually for skin cancer. The patient will not require a yearly bronchoscopy. The patient will not require a yearly bladder biopsy. The male patient should have a yearly prostate examination, but this examination is not required for immunosuppressant therapy.
