    Background. Renal cell carcinoma is the most common type of kidney cancer. Taking account ofmorbidity andmortality increase, it\nis evident that searching for independent prognostic factors is needed.Aimof the Study.The aim of the study was to analyze routinely\nperformed blood parameters as potential prognostic factors for kidney cancer. Material and Methods. We have retrospectively\nreviewed the records of 230 patients treated for renal cell carcinoma in the years 2000ââ?¬â??2006. Preoperative blood parameters,\npostoperative histopathological results, and staging and grading were performed. To estimate the risk of tumor recurrence and\ncancer specific mortality (CSM) within five years of follow-up, uni- and multivariate Cox and regression analyses were used. To\nassess the quality of classifiers and to search for the optimal cut-off point, the ROC curve was used. Results. T stage of the tumor\nmetastasis is themost important risk factor for early recurrence and cancer specific mortality (
