Preferred Label : Bladder Cancer by AJCC v8 Stage;

NCIt synonyms : Bladder Carcinoma by AJCC v8 Stage;

NCIt definition : A term that refers to the staging of bladder cancer according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer, 8th edition. This staging system applies to carcinomas arising in the bladder. The typical carcinoma of the bladder is urothelial carcinoma. These carcinomas may include other histologic elements, including adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, but should be classified as urothelial unless the cancer is composed entirely of the alternative histology. All histologic cell types that are derived primarily from the urinary bladder epithelium should follow this staging system. It does not apply to prostatic urothelial carcinomas (are staged according to the classification for urethra), lymphomas (are staged according to the classification for Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma), and sarcomas (are staged according to the classification for soft tissue sarcoma of the abdomen and thoracic visceral organs). (from AJCC 8th Ed.);
