[A clinical study on renal cell carcinoma].
One hundred and thirty-two patients with renal cell carcinoma, treated by the TEKK Group, during the period from 1962 to 1983 were clinically reviewed. The patients ranged in age from 13 to 77 years with a mean age of 57.3 years, and were 89 men and 44 women, with a sex ratio of 2.07 to 1. The most common symptom was hematuria (55.4%), followed by palpable mass (19.2%), pain (13.8%) and fever (6.9%). The distant metastasis was observed in 26 patients (19.7%), mostly in the lung (54%) and the bone (19%). Overall estimated survival rates at 1,3 and 5 year were 83.0%, 58.2% and 56.9% respectively. The prognosis of the patients with renal cell carcinoma was dependent upon affected site, age, ESR, CRP, alpha 2-globulin and distant metastasis.
