Abstract
Malignancies transmitted to recipients during solid organ transplants carry significant morbidity and mortality. We present 2 cases of adenocarcinoma of donor lung origin transmitted via liver and kidney transplant from a single donor. Both recipients developed metastatic adenocarcinoma of lung origin with p.L858R mutation in the epidermal growth factor receptor gene and a microsatellite signature of donor origin. Osimertinib was trialed in the liver recipient; however, it was discontinued because of hepatotoxicity and disease progression. Standard donor screening protocols limit malignancy transmission but do not include multicancer detection assays. As these technologies evolve, they may be implemented in donor screening.
