NCIt definition : Stage III includes: (T1, N2, M0); (T2, N2, M0); (T3, N0, M0); (T3, N1, M0); (T3, N2,
M0). T1: Nasopharyngeal cancer with tumor confined to the nasopharynx, or tumor extending
to oropharynx and/or nasal cavity without parapharyngeal extension. Parapharyngeal
extension denotes posterolateral infiltration of tumor. T2: Nasopharyngeal cancer
with parapharyngeal extension. Parapharyngeal extension denotes posterolateral infiltration
of tumor. T3: Nasopharyngeal cancer with tumor involving bony structures of skull
base and/or paranasal sinuses. N0: No regional lymph node metastasis. N1: Nasopharyngeal
cancer with unilateral metastasis in cervical lymph node(s), 6 cm or less in greatest
dimension, above the supraclavicular fossa, and/or unilateral or bilateral, retropharyngeal
lymph nodes, 6 cm or less in greatest dimension. Midline nodes are considered ipsilateral
nodes. N2: Nasopharyngeal cancer with bilateral metastasis in cervical lymph node(s),
6 cm or less in greatest dimension, above the supraclavicular fossa. Midline nodes
are considered ipsilateral nodes. M0: No distant metastasis. (AJCC 7th ed.);
