Percentage of high‐grade carcinoma as a prognostic indicator in patients with renal cell carcinoma

The prognostic value of Fuhrman nuclear grade for patients with renal cell carcinoma has been well‐characterized. However, to the authors' knowledge, the prognostic significance of the amount of high‐grade renal cell carcinoma has not been previously analyzed.
