End-stage renal disease(ESRD) patients with malignant renal tumor has its unique clinicopathological characteristics, and there are currently few domestic related studies. A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 16 ESRD patients with malignant renal tumor in Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital. Their ages ranged from 20 to 70 yrs (mean 47.6 yrs). Most of the patients were asymptomatic and all underwent radical nephrectomy or radical nephroureterectomy. Clear cell carcinoma occurred in 11 cases, and papillary renal cell carcinoma in 2 cases. The vast majority of 13 cases were low-stage, low-grade tumors. All 13 cases were followed up for an average of 43.7 months and no recurrence or metastasis was found. In addition, the patients of renal sarcomatoid carcinoma, renal pelvis carcinoma and renal sarcoma survived for 2 to 20 months with poor prognosis.
