Abstract

Introduction: kidney cancer represents 2  of genitourinary neoplasms; it is usually diagnosed between the fourth and sixth decade of life.

Objective: to characterize the clinical-epidemiological behavior and therapeutic management of renal cell carcinoma in Pinar del Rio during 2016-2019.

Methods: a descriptive, retrospective study was conducted in Pinar del Rio from 2016 to 2019, with a target group of 26 patients treated by renal cancer surgery and a sample comprising 21 patients who attended the Oncology Care Center (III Congreso). Clinical history information was collected: age, gender and skin color, symptoms at diagnosis, affected kidney, clinical stages, histology and treatment. A database was prepared where qualitative variables were expressed in absolute frequencies and relative frequencies in percentages.

Results: there was a predominance in the age bracket 70  years  and over  with 8  patients (33,3 %), most of them asymptomatic 12 (60 %), with a greater involvement of the left  kidney 15 (71,4 %) and 7 (33,3 %) in the middle part. Histologically corresponding to the clear cell type 16 (76,2 %), diagnosed 15 (71,4 %) in stage I, with total nephrectomy 20 (95,2 %).

Conclusions: renal cancer predominated in the eighth decade of life, male, asymptomatic at diagnosis, with more involvement of the left kidney in the middle part. Histologically corresponding to clear cells with nuclear grade II, without vascular or lymphatic invasion or thrombi in the renal vein, diagnosed in stage I, mostly treated with total nephrectomy.
