The TNM system of staging cancers is a simple and effective method to map the extent of tumours. It had traditionally strived to maintain a balance between being simple and user-friendly on one hand and comprehensive on the other. A number of revisions have taken place over the years with ...
The TNM (tumor, node, metastasis) system is commonly used to classify the anatomic extent of disease. The interactive table below defines the currently accepted staging system for non-small cell bronchogenic carcinoma. Current statistics on 5 year survival are also shown and examples of different ...

A possible solution is to advocate for modification of the current framework by adopting an additional dimension for the classification system. We propose a pilot iTNM classification with an “i” prefix that denotes when a T, N, or M category is derived via modern imaging modalities, as has ...
Present staging systems The 2010TNM staging systemproposed by the American Joint Committee on Cancer is the staging system of choice for penile andurethral cancers(Table 1).2For both sites, the T stage is defined by the depth of tumor invasion, the N stage by the number and/or size of ca...

This staging system applies to all carcinomas arising in the colon or rectum. Adenocarcinomas of the vermiform appendix are classied according to the TNM staging system for appendix (see Chap. 13), whereas cancers that occur in the anal canal are staged according to the classication used for ...
