Relative survival (3 and 5-year) for localized RCC 4 to 7 cm by age group. RS rates represent comparison of observed survival in patients with medium (4 to 7 cm) tumors to expected survival for age, sex and race matched cancer-free population. Statistically significant differences (*) were identified in 3 and 5-year RS rates with increasing age. Therefore, 38-year-old treated surgically for medium size RCC has likelihood of 5-year survival more similar to that of cancer-free peers than does elderly patient (95.8% vs 85.8%).
