The location of the recurrence was renal fossa, regional lymph node, homolateral adrenal and both renal fossa and regional lymph node for 43 (59.7%), 27 (37.5%), 9 (12.5%) and 7 (9.7%) patients, respectively. Patients were treated by surgery, systemic therapies, combination of therapies and palliative treatment in 24 (33.3%), 18 (25%), 24 (33.3%) and 6 (8.4%) cases, respectively. Within a mean follow‐up of 26.4 ± 3.3 months from the date of local recurrence, 12 (16.6%) patients were alive without disease, 30 (41.7%) patients were alive with disease, 30 patients (41.6%) died including 28 (38.8%) from the disease. In multivariate analysis, time to recurrence <1 year (<italic>P</italic> < 0.001; HR: 4.81) and surgical treatment (<italic>P</italic> = 0.027; HR: 0.33) were predictive factors.</p> </sec> <sec id="jso23473-sec-0004" sec-type="section"> <title>Conclusions</title> <p>Local recurrence after radical nephrectomy is associated with poor prognosis.
