    Abstract:
    We evaluated immunosuppressive acidic protein (IAP) as a tumor marker in renal cell cancer. The study was comprised of patients with renal cell cancer (6 stage A, 3 stage C, 11 stage D, 7 recurrences). The IAP positive rate of renal cell cancer was 84%, the mean was 937.5 +/- 442.1 ug/ml. The positive rate is statistically higher than in other malignant and benign urological diseases. The IAP positive rate tended to increase with cancer stage. IAP may represent a tumor marker in renal cell cancer.
