The Pilsen region suffers the highest incidence of kidney tumours worldwide. Approximately 240 new cases diagnosed as C64 (malignant renal tumours outside the pelvis) were recorded in this region of about 580,000 inhabitants in 2015. Clear renal cell carcinoma has long held first place as the most common tumour, with papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) being the second most frequently operated kidney tumour at the Urology Department of the University Hospital in Pilsen. The 2016 WHO classification of kidney tumours recognizes officially only the stratification of pRCC to type 1 (pRCC1) and type 2 (pRCC2). Unfortunately, the current division does not correspond with knowledge derived from everyday practice. Most clinical trials involving pRCC do not differentiate between the subtypes, adhering only to the official type 1 and 2 divisions and the atypical papillary forms being excluded from their studies. We therefore have to face the question of whether the histological pRCC subtype affects the risk of recurrence, or death, in surgically treated patients. The aim of this dissertation work is to take into consideration also all other papillary types which differ from characterization of pRCC1 and pRCC2. The analyses of a group of patients with surgically treated and histologically verified pRCC at...
