The survival of patients with renal cell carcinoma is directly related to the extent of malignancy at the time of treatment. Patients with T1 and T2 disease experience excellent survival independent of the grade of the disease. However, once the disease has extended from the kidney, survival is a function of whether the disease progresses by direct extension or has the ability to move through space and deposit at distant metastatic sites. When this occurs, survival is almost directly a function of the grade and degree of malignancy of the renal tumor.
肾细胞癌患者的生存率与治疗时的恶性程度直接相关。T1和T2期疾病的患者无论疾病分级如何，生存率都很高。然而，一旦疾病超出肾脏范围，生存率就取决于疾病是通过直接蔓延进展，还是有能力通过空间转移并在远处转移部位沉积。当这种情况发生时，生存率几乎直接取决于肾肿瘤的分级和恶性程度。
