Retraction to: Transl Androl Urol 2020;9:1670-7.
The article “Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor C in renal cell carcinoma and its correlation with pathological parameters and prognosis” (doi: 10.21037/tau-20-970) (1) published in Vol 9, No 4 (August 2020) issue has been retracted since the ethical approval number (SZFYIEC-PJ-2019-21) in the article was incorrect, which was related to lung cancer research rather than renal cell carcinoma.
