Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype of kidney cancer with aggressive behavior. Tumor stage and grade are important parameter in diagnosis. Data about the clinical and pathology profile of ccRCC in Indonesia is limited, therefore further information is needed. The study aimed to determine clinicopathologic profile of ccRCC in Soetomo Academic General Hospital (SAGH). This descriptive study was conducted retrospectively with cross-sectional approach. Clinical and histopathological archives of ccRCC specimen were retrieved during January 2016 to December 2020. The total number of ccRCC cases obtained was 38 cases, the most cases (11) occurred in 2016. The average of patient’s age was 55.64 years. Patients were predominantly male (71.1%), with a ratio to female 2.5:1. The tumors mostly filled the entire kidney, in 15 (39.5%) cases. Most pT stage distribution was pT2, in 15 (39.5%) cases. Most N stage distribution was N0, in 23 (60.5%) cases. Only 5 (13.2%) cases showed multiple pulmonary nodules which suspected to be metastatic (M1). The most common tumors grade was G4, in 17 (44.7%) cases. In conclusion, ccRCC patient were predominantly male, tumors mostly high grade, filled entire kidney, not penetrated renal capsule, and not metastasize to regional lymph nodes.
