Preferred Label : Stage III Uterine Sarcoma AJCC v7;
NCIt synonyms : Stage III Uterine Sarcoma;
NCIt definition : Stage III includes: IIIA (T3a, N0, M0); IIIB (T3b, N0, M0); IIIC (T1-T3, N1, M0).
T1: Tumor limited to the uterus. T2: Tumor extends beyond the uterus, within the pelvis.
T3: Tumor infiltrates abdominal tissues. T3a: Tumor infiltrates abdominal tissues,
one side. T3b: Tumor infiltrates abdominal tissues, more than one side. N0: No regional
lymph node metastasis. N1: Regional lymph node metastasis. M0: No distant metastasis.
This staging applies to leiomyosarcoma, endometrial stromal sarcoma, and adenosarcoma.
(AJCC 7th ed.);
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: Stage III uterine sarcoma is divided into stages IIIA and IIIB based on
how far the cancer has spread within the pelvis (lower part of the abdomen between
the hip bones). In stage IIIA, cancer has spread to the outermost layer of the uterus;
and /or tissues just beyond the uterus; and/or the peritoneum. In stage IIIB, cancer
has spread to lymph nodes in the pelvis and/or near the uterus.;
