Distant Metastasis (pM)

___ Not applicable

FIGO Stage

  • I: Carcinoma is strictly confined to the cervix (extension to the uterine corpus should be disregarded).

      • IA2: Measured invasion of stroma >3 mm and <5 mm in depth and ≤7 mm width.
    • IB: Clinical lesions confined to the cervix, or preclinical lesions greater than stage IA.
      • IB1: Clinical lesions ≤4 cm in size.
      • IB2: Clinical lesions >4cm in size.

      • IIA2: Clinically visible lesion >4 cm
    • IIB: Obvious parametrial involvement but not onto the pelvic sidewall.
  • III: The carcinoma has extended onto the pelvic sidewall. On rectal examination, there is no cancer-free space between the tumor and pelvic sidewall. The tumor involves the lower third of the vagina. All cases of hydronephrosis or nonfunctioning kidney should be included unless they are known to be due to other causes.
    • IIIA: Involvement of the lower vagina but no extension onto pelvic sidewall.
    • IIIB: Extension onto the pelvic sidewall, or hydronephrosis/nonfunctioning kidney.
  • IV: Carcinoma has extended beyond the true pelvis or has clinically involved the mucosa of the bladder and/or rectum.
    • IVA: Spread to adjacent pelvic organs.
    • IVB: Spread to distant organs.

Note: The depth of invasion should not be more than 5 mm taken from the base of the epithelium, either surface or glandular, from which it originates. Vascular space invasion should not alter the staging.

    • IIB: Extension to other pelvic intraperitoneal tissues

      • IIIA1: Positive retroperitoneal lymph nodes only (cytologically or histologically proven)

        • IIIA1(ii): Metastasis >10 mm in greatest dimension#
      • IIIA2: Microscopic extrapelvic (above the pelvic brim) peritoneal involvement with or without positive retroperitoneal lymph nodes
    • IIIB: Macroscopic peritoneal metastases beyond the pelvic brim ≤2 cm in greatest dimension, with or without metastasis to the retroperitoneal lymph nodes
    • IIIC: Macroscopic peritoneal metastases beyond the pelvic brim >2 cm in greatest dimension, with or without metastases to the retroperitoneal nodes##

This is tumor dimension and not lymph node dimension.
## Includes extension of tumor to capsule of liver and spleen without parenchymal involvement of either organ.
### Parenchymal metastases are stage IVB. Disease invading through the bowel wall and into the mucosa increases the stage to IVB, and transmural involvement of a visceral structure also represents stage IVB disease.
