Abstract
Objective: To describe the histopathological characteristics and to evaluate the relationship between tumor grade according to WHO classification 2016 and some other pathologic features of clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Subject and method: A descriptive study on 98 operated patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma at the 108 Military Central Hospital from January 2015 to May 2021. Result and conclusion: The mean age of patients was 56.26 ± 12.25 years; the ratio of men:women was 2.1:1. The average tumor size was 5.2 ± 2.1cm. The rates of cases with tumor necrosis, perinephric fat invasion, renal capsule invasion and angioinvasion were 29.6%, 16.3%, 36.7% and 15.3%, respectively. The percentage of cases with tumor grade 2 was highest at 49%. There was a statistical significance between large tumor size, tumor necrosis, perinephric fat invasion, renal capsule invasion, angioinvasion and high tumor grade (p<0.05).
