ABSTRACT
Purpose: Our study aims to investigate the long-term survival and prognostic factors of patients after laparoscopic radical nephrectomy. Methods: Totally, 245 patients with renal cell carcinoma in our hospital from January 2015 to February 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. The 5-year survival status of patients with renal cell carcinoma was under analysis and further based on univariate analysis, and its influencing factors were analyzed by Cox regression. Results: The average 5-year follow-up time of 245 patients with renal cell carcinoma was (4.88 ± 0.52) years. The mortality of 1 year, 3 years and 5 years were 2.45% (5/245), 6.35% (16/245) and 9.80% (24/245), respectively. The survival rates were 97.55% (239/245), 93.06% (228/245) and 90.61% (222/245). Univariate analysis showed that age, tumor diameter, hematuria, TNM stage and postoperative recurrence may be the influencing factors of 5-year survival of patients with renal cell carcinoma (P < .05). However, the following parameters, including gender, course of disease, and other clinical complications were not related to the 5-year survival of patients with renal cell carcinoma (P > .05). the influencing factors of 5-year survival status of patients with renal cell carcinoma were age, tumor diameter, hematuria, TNM stage, and postoperative recurrence. Conclusion: The study revealed the long-term survival of patients with renal cell carcinoma may be associated with age, tumor diameter, hematuria, TNM stage and postoperative recurrence.
