NCIt related terms : Stage III Colon Cancer;
NCIt definition : Stage III includes: IIIA: (T1-T2, N1/N1c, M0); (T1, N2a, M0); IIIB: (T3-T4a, N1/N1c,
M0); (T2-T3, N2a, M0); (T1-T2, N2b, M0); IIIC: (T4a, N2a, M0); (T3-T4a, N2b, M0);
(T4b, N1-N2, M0). T1: Tumor invades the submucosa (through the muscularis mucosa but
not into the muscularis propria). T2: Tumor invades the muscularis propria. T3: Tumor
invades through the muscularis propria into pericolorectal tissues. T4a: Tumor invades
through the visceral peritoneum (including gross perforation of the bowel through
tumor and continuous invasion of tumor through areas of inflammation to the surface
of the visceral peritoneum). T4b: Tumor directly invades or adheres to adjacent organs
or structures. N1: One to three regional lymph nodes are positive (tumor in lymph
nodes measuring 0.2 mm or more), or any number of tumor deposits are present and all
identifiable lymph nodes are negative. N1c: No regional lymph nodes are positive,
but there are tumor deposits in the subserosa, mesentery, or nonperitonealized pericolic,
or perirectal/mesorectal tissues. N2: Four or more regional lymph nodes are positive.
N2a: Four to six regional lymph nodes are positive. N2b: Seven or more regional lymph
nodes are positive. M0: No distant metastasis. (AJCC 8th ed.);
