was changed:
The most commonly adopted staging staging system for ovarian cancer is the FIGO staging system.
It is as follows:
-
stage I:
:tumour limited to the ovaries-
stage Ia:
:tumour limited to one ovary, no malignant ascites/ negative/negative peritoneal washings -
stage Ib:
:tumour limited to both ovaries, no malignant ascites/ negative/negative peritoneal washings -
stage Ic:
:stage Ia or Ib with malignant ascites/ positive/positive peritoneal washings
-
stage Ia:
-
stage II:
:tumour involves one or both ovaries with pelvic extension-
stage IIa:
:extension or implants on the uterus or fallopian tubes, no malignant ascites/ negative/negative peritoneal washings -
stage IIb:
:extension to other pelvic tissues, no malignant ascites/ negative/negative peritoneal washings -
stage IIc:
:stage IIa or IIb with malignant ascites/ positive/positive peritoneal washings
-
stage IIa:
-
stage III:
:tumour involves one or both ovaries with peritoneal implants outside the pelvis or with retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis-
stage IIIa:
:microscopic peritoneal metastasis beyond the pelvis -
stage IIIb:
:macroscopic peritoneal metastasis beyond the pelvis 2 cm or less -
stage IIIc:
: peritonealperitoneal metastasis beyond the pelvis more than 2 cm or regional lymph node metastasis
-
stage IIIa:
-
stage IV:
:distant metastases including liver parenchyma
