abstract: A workshop on the high risk group and the preventive oncology of renal cell carcinoma was held in Kyoto on September 7, 1990. The following subjects were presented: 1. Cohort study of renal cell carcinoma (Dr. Hirayama). 2. Pathoepidemiological study on the background of occurrence of renal cell carcinoma (Dr. Aoki). 3.

A review on the literature of epidemiology for renal cell carcinoma (Dr. Nakagawa). Possible risk factors reported for renal cell carcinoma were as follows: 1) Work in petroleum-related and dry-cleaning industries were positive risk. A predominant lifetime occupation as a professional was negative risk. 2) Milk or coffee consumption and use of artificial sweeteners were positive.
