NCIt definition : Stage IVA includes: (T4a, N0, M0); (T4a, N1, M0); (T1, N2, M0); (T2, N2, M0); (T3,
N2, M0); (T4a, N2, M0). T4a: Moderately advanced disease. Tumor invades skin, mandible,
ear canal, and/or facial nerve. T1: Tumor measuring 2 cm or less in greatest dimension
without extraparenchymal extension. Extraparenchymal extension is clinical or macroscopic
evidence of invasion of soft tissues. Microscopic evidence alone does not constitute
extraparenchymal extension for classification purposes. T2: Tumor measuring more than
2 cm, but not more than 4 cm in greatest dimension without extraparenchymal extension.
T3: Tumor measuring more than 4 cm in greatest dimension, and/or tumor having extraparenchymal
extension. N0: No regional lymph node metastasis. N1: Metastasis in a single ipsilateral
lymph node, 3 cm or less in greatest dimension. N2: Metastasis in a single ipsilateral
lymph node, more than 3 cm but not more than 6 cm in greatest dimension, or in multiple
ipsilateral lymph nodes, none more than 6 cm in greatest dimension, or in bilateral
or contralateral lymph nodes, none more than 6 cm in greatest dimension. M0: No distant
metastasis. (AJCC 7th ed.);
