Abstract: | The majority of renal tumor malignancies are classified as renal cell carcinoma (RCC), which ranks 10th as the leading cause of cancer deaths, and constitutes 3% of all solid malignancies [1]. In the United States, approximately 31,000 new cases of RCC were predicted for 2005, leading to an estimated 12,000 deaths [2] and in Europe approximately 40,000 patients are newly diagnosed each year, leading to an estimated 20,000 deaths [3]. © 2008 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. |
