The 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates, as well as the mean time from primary nephrectomy (radical or partial) to the development of secondary malignancies, in patients diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma (n = 754). The incidence of secondary malignancies is reported (n = 236), along with their survival outcomes and the proportion detected within 60 months of the primary surgery. a Mean value (SD)
