NCIt related terms : Stage IIIB Colon Cancer;
NCIt definition : Stage IIIB includes: (T3-T4a, N1/N1c, M0); (T2-T3, N2a, M0); (T1-T2, N2b, 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).
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. N2a: Four to six regional lymph nodes are positive. N2b: Seven or more regional
