The staging staging system for choriocarcinoma (usually refers to uterine choriocarcinoma) is the FIGO staging system and is as follows 1.

  • stage I:  disease limited to the uterus.
  • stage II:: disease out of the uterus but limited to the female genital tract.
  • stage III: : metastasis in the lung with or without involvement of female genital tract
  • stage IV: all metastasis at other locations

This staging system is much simpler then than the system system for ovarian cancer staging and endometrial cancer staging.
