What is the mortality rate with early diagnosis of Kidney Cancer?

The mortality rate with early diagnosis of kidney cancer is relatively low. According to the American Cancer Society, the five-year survival rate for people diagnosed with kidney cancer that is localized (has not spread to other parts of the body) is 93%. This means that about 93 out of every 100 people diagnosed with early kidney cancer will survive for at least five years after their diagnosis. The survival rate for people diagnosed with regional kidney cancer (has spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes) is 76%, and the survival rate for people diagnosed with distant kidney cancer (has spread to other organs) is 13%.

These survival rates are based on data from people who were diagnosed with kidney cancer between 2009 and 2015. The survival rates for people diagnosed with kidney cancer in more recent years may be even higher, due to advances in diagnosis and treatment.

It is important to remember that the survival rates for kidney cancer are just estimates. The actual survival rate for an individual patient will depend on a number of factors, including the stage of the cancer, the patient's age and overall health, and the type of treatment received.
