446 Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) survivors have an increased risk of developing second primary cancers. We sought to determine the role of RCC tumor histology for the risk of developing second primary solid tumors. Methods: The Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database was used to detect RCC cases diagnosed up to 12/31/2011. The Standardized Incidence Ratio (SIR) was calculated as the ratio of observed to expected cases of second primary malignancy based on incidence data in the general United States population. The two most common RCC histological subtypes were included; clear cell and papillary. The latency exclusion period from the date of diagnosis was 60 months. We investigated for the effect of latency period after initial diagnosis (5-10 years and >10 years) that may increase the risk for a second primary cancer. Results: A total of 2,669 patients with an initial diagnosis of RCC (clear cell: 2,368, papillary: 301) that developed second primary cancers were included in our analysis. There was a significantly increased risk of thyroid cancer (SIR: 2.30, p<0.05), prostate cancer (SIR: 1.12, p<0.05) and “all solid tumors” (SIR: 1.14, p<0.05) in clear cell RCC cases. Regarding latency period, thyroid cancer (SIR: 2.87, p<0.05) risk was increased in the 5-10 years latency period, but not in the >10 years latency period. Overall, in patients diagnosed with papillary RCC, tumors of the prostate (SIR: 1.30, p<0.05), lung (SIR: 1.78, p<0.05) and pancreas (SIR: 2.70, p<0.05) were increased. Exclusively in the 5-10 years latency period, the risk for developing lung cancer (SIR: 1.90, p<0.05) was significant. Conclusions: RCC histology may impact the risk for developing specific second primary solid tumors.
