Overview
According to the TNM staging system, there are four stages of adrenocortical cancer based on the tumor size, lymph nodes, and distant metastasis. Each stage is assigned a number and letter that designates the number of lymph nodes involved and presence/absence of distant metastasis.
Staging of adrenocortical carcinoma
The AJCC has designated staging by TNM to define adrenocortical carcinoma[1]
Stage | Description |
---|---|
TX | Primary tumor cannot be assessed |
T0 | No evidence of primary tumor |
T1 | Tumor ≤5 cm in greatest dimension limited to the adrenals |
T2 | Tumor >5 cm in greatest dimension, limited to the adrenals |
T3 | Tumor of any size with local invasion, but not invading adjacent organs |
T4 | Tumor of any size with invasion of adjacent organs |
Stage | Description |
---|---|
NX | Regional lymph node cannot be assessed |
N0 | No regional lymph node metastasis |
N1 | Regional lymph node metastasis |
Stage | Description |
---|---|
M0 | No distant metastasis |
M1 | Distant metastasis |
Stage | T | N | M |
---|---|---|---|
I | T1 | N0 | M0 |
II | T2 | N0 | M0 |
III | T1 | N1 | M0 |
T2 | N1 | M0 | |
T3 | N0 | M0 | |
IV | T3 | N1 | M0 |
T4 | N0 | M0 | |
T4 | N1 | M0 | |
Any T | Any N | M1 |
A new study showed staging system that incorporates the patient's age better and predicts 5-year survival among patients with stages I/II ACC. Consideration should be given to include age in staging for ACC, because it may better inform providers about treatment and prognosis.[2]
