Abstract
The paper reviews the literature on the treatment of renal cancer, mainly on postoperative immunotherapy. It outlines a role of cytokines in tumor-immune system interaction, the prognostic value of the level of expression of each cytokine for both survival rates and the efficiency of immunotherapy, as well as the use of this information to develop new therapeutic approaches.
