TNM residual tumor classification revisited.
BACKGROUND For cancer patients, prognosis is strongly influenced by the completeness of tumor removal at the time of cancer-directed surgery or disease remission after nonsurgical treatment with curative intent. These parameters define the relative success of definitive treatment and can be codified by an additional subclassification within the TNM system, the residual tumor (R) classification....
متن کاملTumor classification for early oral cancer: re-evaluate the current TNM classification.
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that incorporation of tumor thickness into the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) system will provide better prognostic information. Tumors were reclassified as T1 if ≤5-mm thick/≤4-cm diameter, and T2 if >5-mm thick/≤4-cm diameter. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted of 322 patients with T1 and T2 oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) between 1987 and 2012. Univar...
متن کاملTNM classification for lung cancer.
The international tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system is the "international language" in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Six revisions of the TNM staging system for lung cancer have been repeated over the past 35 years after the beginning of UICC-TNM classification in 1968. The 1997 revision for lung cancer has undergone an extensive correction for many deficiencies of the old staging sy...
متن کاملResidual Ridge Resorption – Revisited
Residual ridge resorption (RRR) is a term that is used to describe the changes which affect the alveolar ridge following tooth extractions, and which continue even after healing of the extraction socket. The most significant feature of this healing process is that the residual bony architecture of the maxilla and mandible undergoes a life-long catabolic remodelling. The rate of reduction in siz...
متن کامل[The new TNM classification in lung cancer].
This paper presents the new TNM classification in lung cancer and its history. Seventh edition of tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) classification in lung cancer has been published by the International Union Against Cancer (UICC) and the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) at the beginning of 2009. The changes were based upon the results of the international project of the International Assoc...
