Overview
The exocrine and endocrine tumors of the pancreas are staged with the help of a single pancreatic staging system. Staging of pancreatic cancer aids in determining the extent of the disease and helps in arriving at the diagnosis. Staging plays a major role in planning effective treatment and assessing the prognosis. Staging of pancreatic adenocarcinoma is done with the TNM staging system based on the results of imaging modalities such as CT, MRI, PET, TUS, endoscopic studies such as EUS and biopsy with ERCP. The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM system is most often used to stage cancers of the pancreas based on the information from three variables, namley the T, N, and M. T - Indicates the size of the primary tumor and the extent of it's growth outside the pancreas and into nearby organs. N - Indicates the spread to the regional lymph nodes, where the cancers usually first spread. M - Indicates the metastasis (spread) of cancer to other parts (organs) of the body. The most common sites for the spread of pancreatic cancer are the liver, lungs, and the peritoneum.
Staging
- The exocrine and endocrine tumors of the pancreas are staged with the help of a single pancreatic staging system. Staging of pancreatic cancer aids in determining the extent of the disease and helps in arriving at the diagnosis. Staging plays a major role in planning effective treatment and assessing the prognosis. Staging of pancreatic adenocarcinoma is done with the TNM staging system based on the results of imaging modalities such as CT, MRI, PET, USG, endoscopic studies such as EUS and biopsy with ERCP.
- The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM system is most often used to stage cancers of the pancreas based on the information from three variables, namley the T, N, and M:
- T - Indicates the size of the primary tumor and the extent of it's growth outside the pancreas and into nearby organs.
- N - Indicates the spread to the regional lymph nodes, where the cancers usually first spread.
- M - Indicates the metastasis (spread) of cancer to other parts (organs) of the body. The most common sites for the spread of pancreatic cancer are the liver, lungs, and the peritoneum.
- Stage grouping of pancreatic cancer:[1]
