Malignancy is a well-known complication of immunosuppression in solid organ transplant recipients. Few case reports have described an association between cystic fibrosis and biliary tract neoplasms. We describe a rare case of cholangiocarcinoma after lung transplantation in a patient with cystic fibrosis.
