Abstract

BACKGROUND: Solid organ transplant recipients are at high risk for developing skin malignancies due to prolonged immunosuppression. The field of transplant dermatology (TD) has experienced a surge in research and clinical advancements, yet there is no quantitative evaluation estimating the impact of TD literature. OBJECTIVE: Identify and characterize the most frequently cited TD articles. METHODS: Institute For Scientific Information Web of Science was used to identify the 50 most cited research articles in TD. Results were reviewed by 3 independent authors. A network analysis was performed to assess collaboration patterns among coauthors. RESULTS: Top articles held a combined total of 12,114 citations. The top-cited article was "Cancer incidence before and after kidney transplantation," by Vajdic and colleagues in the Journal of the American Medical Association (2006) with 872 citations. A total of 22 countries and 221 institutions were represented. CONCLUSION: This bibliometric analysis offers a detailed overview of the most cited manuscripts in TD and illustrates the discoveries steering TD research and practice.
