Overview
Urethral cancer may be classified into several subtypes based on TNM system and the depth of invasion.
Staging
Stage Definitions by Depth of Invasion
- Stage 0 (Tis, Ta): Limited to mucosa
- Stage A (T1): Submucosal invasion
- Stage B (T2): Infiltrating periurethral muscle or corpus spongiosum
- Stage C (T3): Infiltration beyond periurethral tissue
- Female: Vagina, labia, muscle
- Male: Corpus cavernosum, muscle
- Stage D1 (N+): Regional nodes; pelvic and inguinal
- Stage D2 (N+, M+): Distant nodes; visceral metastases
Definitions of TNM [1]
The American Joint Committee on Cancer has designated staging by TNM classification to define urethral cancer.
TNM | Definition |
---|---|
TX | Primary tumor cannot be assessed. |
T0 | No evidence of primary tumor. |
Ta | Noninvasive papillary, polypoid, or verrucous carcinoma. |
Tis | Carcinoma in situ. |
T0 | No evidence of primary tumor. |
T1 | Tumor invades subepithelial connective tissue. |
T2 | Tumor invades any of the following: corpus spongiosum, prostate, periurethral muscle. |
T3 | Tumor invades any of the following: corpus cavernosum, beyond prostatic capsule, anterior vagina, bladder neck. |
T4 | Tumor invades other adjacent organs. |
Urothelial (Transitional Cell) Carcinoma of the Prostate | |
|
Carcinoma in situ, involvement of the prostatic urethra. |
