Objective To analyze the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors of common subtypes of non-transparent renal cell carcinoma.Methods Retrospective analysis of 115 patients with pathologically confirmed non-transparent renal cell carcinoma from January 2003 to December 2017,including 67 males and 48 females,with a male to female ratio of 1.4∶ 1.The average age is (51.2 ± 13.4)years old.71 cases were asymptomatic renal cancer,44 cases had clinical symptoms,including 10 cases of gross hematuria,28 cases of low back pain,4 cases of hematuria with low back pain,and 2 cases of abdominal mass.There were 49 open surgery and 66 laparoscopic surgery.58 patients underwent radical nephrectomy and 57 underwent partial nephrectomy.Of the 115 patients,17 (14.9％) had abnormal hemoglobin (Hb),22 (19.1％) had abnormal platelet (PLT) count,18 (15.7％) had abnormal alkaline phosphatase,and abnormal lactate dehydrogenase 16 cases (13.9％).The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis method was used to calculate the survival rate of patients,and the Cox proportional regression risk model was used to analyze the prognostic factors.Results The postoperative pathological stage was 57 cases in T1a stage,38 cases in T1b stage,12 cases in T2a stage,8 cases in T2b stage,2 cases of regional lymph node positive,and 113 cases negative;no distant metastasis.Pathological types:42 cases of renal chromophobe cell carcinoma,37 cases of papillary renal cell carcinoma type Ⅰ,36 cases of type Ⅱ.The average follow-up time was 38.6 months,and the rate of loss of follow-up was 3.5％ (4/115).The 1,3,and 5 year overall survival rates of 115 patients with common subtypes of non-transparent renal cell carcinoma were 99.1％,95.8％,and 81.1％,respectively.Multivariate Cox regression analysis found that the pathological type (OR =4.625,P =0.014),four indicators ≥ 3 abnormalities (OR =30.853,P =0.024),lymph node metastasis (OR =35.663,P =0.006) were the group.An independent factor in the survival time of patients with common subtypes of non-transparent renal cell carcinoma.Conclusions Compared with papillary renal cell carcinoma type Ⅰ and renal chromophobe cell carcinoma,papillary renal cell carcinoma type Ⅱ has a higher degree of malignancy and a poor prognosis.The pathological types of the common subtypes of nontransparent renal cell carcinoma,four indicators (Hb,PLT count,alkaline phosphatase,and lactate dehydrogenase) ≥3 abnormalities and lymph node metastasis are independent prognostic factors for overall survival.
