Between January 1986 and August 1996, 120 patients were diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) at Kanagawa Cancer Center. In this study, we analyzed these patients in view of the clinicopathological factors, which affect the prognosis of these patients with univariate and multivariate analysis using Cox's proportional hazard model. Of these 120 patients, 40 patients (33%) died of RCC during this period. The cause specific survival rate was 65% after 5 years and 57% after 10 years. Univariate analysis showed some factors, performance status, symptoms, tumor size, histological grade, local invasion (pT), venous involvement (pV), lung metastasis, lymph-node metastasis, and bone metastasis, affected the prognosis. Furthermore, multivariate analysis using Cox's proportional hazard model showed that performance status, pT, pV, lung metastasis, lymphnode metastasis, and bone metastasis independently affected the prognosis. In summary, TMN factors and performance status importantly affect the prognosis of RCC patients.
