Footnotes:

a SEER 18 areas (San Francisco, Connecticut, Detroit, Hawaii, Iowa, New Mexico, Seattle, Utah, Atlanta, San Jose-Monterey, Los Angeles, Alaska Native Registry, Rural Georgia, California excluding SF/SJM/LA, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Jersey and Georgia excluding ATL/RG). Based on follow-up of patients into 2010.

b International Classification of Childhood Cancer is based on ICD-O-3. Steliarova-Foucher E, Stiller C, Lacour B, Kaatsch P. International Classification of Childhood Cancer, Third Edition. Cancer. April 1, 2005: Vol 103, No. 7 , pg 1457-1467.

c Classifications are shown for invasive cases only. For ICCC groups and subgroups that include in situ behavior, only invasive cases are shown except as noted.

d The standard error is between 5 and 10 percentage points.

e The standard error is greater than 10 percentage points.

f Includes in situ urinary bladder tumors.

- Statistic could not be calculated due to fewer than 25 cases during the time period.

Neoplasms are abbreviated as neo.
