NCIt related terms : stage III salivary gland cancer; Stage III Major Salivary Gland Cancer;
NCIt definition : Stage III includes: (T3, N0, M0); (T1, N1, M0); (T2, N1, M0); (T3, N1, M0). T3: Tumor
measuring more than 4 cm in greatest dimension, and/or tumor having 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. T1: Tumor measuring 2 cm or less in greatest dimension
without extraparenchymal extension. T2: Tumor measuring more than 2 cm, but not more
than 4 cm in greatest dimension without extraparenchymal extension. N0: No regional
lymph node metastasis. N1: Metastasis in a single ipsilateral lymph node, 3 cm or
less in greatest dimension. M0: No distant metastasis. (AJCC 7th ed.);
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: In stage III salivary gland cancer, (1) the tumor is not larger than 4
centimeters and has spread to a single lymph node on the same side of the body as
the tumor and the lymph node is 3 centimeters or smaller; or (2) the tumor is larger
than 4 centimeters and/or has spread to soft tissue around the affected gland; cancer
may have spread to a single lymph node on the same side as the tumor and the lymph
node is 3 centimeters or smaller.;
