Preoperative prognostication of renal cell carcinoma by basic blood parameters

W. Harry Santhaseelan, K. Niranj

Abstract :

The study aimed to answer whether preoperative determination of basic blood cell count can be used to predict prognosis of non–metastatic RCC with respect to risk of metastasis, recurrence, cancer specific mortality. We retrospectively analyzed 292 patients with non– metastatic renal cell carcinoma who underwent surgery between 2012 and 2017. Data with respect to tumour characteristics, patient characteristics and blood parameters based on RBCs and platelets were analyzed. . The best predictor among the analyzed preoperative laboratory parameters is the platelet count and volume. However individual blood parameters have low predictive value than stage and grade of tumour
