aThe cohort analysis of survival rates was utilized for calculating the survival estimates presented in this table. Long-term cohort-based survival estimates reflect the survival experience of individuals diagnosed over the time period, and they may not necessarily reflect the long-term survival outlook of newly diagnosed cases.

bThe sites referred to in this table are loosely based on the categories and site codes defined in the SEER Site/Histology Validation List.
