Introduction Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) shows a high prevalence in renal tranplant recipients, nevertheless urinary reconstruction by way of orthotopic neobladder is rarely reported. Patients and Methods Two kidney transplant patients (1 man and 1 woman) affected by TCC underwent radical cystectomy and urinary reconstruction by neobladder according to the “Vescica Ileale Padovana” technique. Results and Discussion No patients claimed incontinence or urine retention. The spherical rebuilding assured an adequate bladder capacity and a low endovesical pressure. After 48 months one patient died because of disease progression. The first relapse was detected in ureter two years after cystectomy. The other patient is still alive after 40 months and in good health conditions. Conclusions This anecdotal report suggests that the “Vescica Ileale Padovana” technique could be useful in renal transplant recipients with TCC. A possible role of Rapamycin on our results cannot yet be excluded.
