Stages of Cervical Cancer
|
|
Stages:
|
Cancer Location:
|
|
0
|
Cancer located only in cervix, no spreading.
|
|
I
|
Strictly confined to the cervix.
|
|
1-A
|
Lesions are detected microscopically and can be measured.
The upper size of the measurement is about 5 mm.
|
|
II
|
The carcinoma extends through the cervix, but has not yet
invaded the pelvic wall. Carcinoma has also extended
into the top third of the vagina.
|
|
III
|
The carcinoma has now extended to the Pubic Wall. On
a rectal exam, there is no cancer-free space between the tumor
and the pelvic wall. Tumor involves the lower third of the
vagina.
|
|
IV
|
Carcinoma has extended beyond the pelvis and has penetrated
the bladder or rectum.
|
|
IV-A
|
Carcinoma has spread to distant organs.
|
|
| Stages
of Hodgkin's Disease |
|
Stages:
|
Cancer Location:
|
|
I
|
Involvement of a single lymph-node region.
|
|
II
|
Involvement of two or more lymph node regions on the
same side of the diaphragm, or localized involvement
of lymph-node regions on the same side of the diaphram.
|
|
III
|
Involvement of two or more lymph-node regions on the
same side of the diaphragm, which may also be accompanied
by localized involvement of an organ or spleen, or both.
|
|
IV
|
Diffusion to other areas of the body.
|
|
| Stages
of Prostate Cancer |
|
Stages:
|
Cancer Location:
|
|
A
|
Cancer located only in prostate. No spread. Tumor is
non detectable on a rectal examination.
|
|
B
|
The carcinoma is still confined to the prostate, however,
tumor is evident on a rectal exam. Tumor is approximately
2 cm. in diameter.
|
|
C
|
Tumor has extended through the prostate, but has not
spread. Tumor still one piece.
|
|
D
|
Carcinoma has spread to distant organs, may also be
found in regional lymph node.
|
|
|
|
Stages of Neuroblastoma
(Cancer of Children)
|
|
Stages:
|
Cancer Location:
|
|
I
|
Strictly confined to organ of origin.
|
|
II
|
Tumor spreads, but does not cross the midline.
|
|
III
|
Tumor spreads over the midline.
|
|
IV
|
Metastases (spreads) to lymph notes, bones, brain,
or lung.
|
|
IV-S
|
Small primary tumor with metastases to liver, skin,
and/or bone marrow.
|
|
|
Stages of Colon
/ Rectum
|
|
Stages:
|
Cancer Location:
|
|
I
|
Strictly confined colon.
|
|
II
|
Tumor spreads, but is still confined to the bowel walls.
|
|
III
|
Tumor spreads with no regional lymph node metastasis.
|
|
IV
|
Metastases (spreads) to the bowel wall with or without
lymph node metastasis.
