Transplantation today -- De novo malignancies after solid organ transplantation: focus on viral infection -- Update on benign and inflammatory skin disease secondary to transplant medication -- Update on photoprotection and sunscreen use in solid organ transplant recipients -- Update on our understanding of HPV as a risk factor for cutaneous SCC in organ transplant recipients -- Advances in our understanding of immunosuppression as a risk factor for cutaneous SCC: evidence for revision of immunosuppressive therapy -- Advances in photodynamic therapy for the treatment of malignant and pre-malignant lesions in transplant dermatology -- Update on staging, definition and chemoprevention of ‘high risk SCC’ in organ transplant recipients -- Advances in management of ‘high risk SCC’ in organ transplant recipients -- Advances in management of Merkel cell carcinoma in organ transplant recipients; role of polyoma virus and immunosuppression -- Update in melanoma in organ transplant recipients -- Update on unusual tumors in organ transplant recipients.

This book provides an informative update on scientific advances relating to transplant dermatology that may be applicable to clinical practice. Commentary is provided on the emerging role of viruses in transplant dermatology, the management of skin disease secondary to transplant medication, sunscreen use in transplant recipients, the role of revision of immunosuppression, and advances in photodynamic therapy. The latest staging and management criteria for high-risk squamous cell carcinoma and the implications for clinical practice are then analyzed. Finally, the management of other cutaneous malignancies is discussed, covering malignant melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, and rarer tumors that also behave aggressively and require special consideration in solid organ transplant patients. Each particular advance is addressed in an individual chapter by leaders in the field. The book both expands current knowledge and complements previous textbooks on the subject.
