Abstract: Introduction. Renal cell carcinoma(RCC) represents approximately 2-3% of all malignancies with variations in regional incidence. Over the last two decades the incidence of RCC increased by about 2%, both worldwide and in Republic of Moldova. Obesity is one of the well-established risk factors for RCC. Obesity has also been increasing throughout the world. The increasing prevalence of obesity might therefore, at least partially, explain the increasing incidence of renal cell cancer.
