◼ Sinônimos Inglês tumour-node-metastasis staging;
The most common system used to describe whether cancer has spread and if so, how far. It gives 3 key pieces of information: T refers to the size of the tumor N describes whether or not the cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes, and if so, how many M shows whether the cancer has spread (metastasized) to other organs of the body Letters or numbers after the T, N, and M give more details about each of these factors. To make this clearer, the TNM descriptions can be grouped together into a simpler set of stages, labeled with Roman numerals (usually from I to IV). In general, the lower the number, the less the cancer has spread. A higher number means a more serious cancer.

...h breast cancer and ABO antigen expression (P=0,9323) and genotypes (P=0,9356). Lewis negative was associated with IDC (P=0,0126), but were not associated with anatomoclinical parameters (tumor size, TNM staging and axillary lymph nodes metastasis). Non-secretor genotype was associated with axilary lymph nodes metastasis (P=0,0149). In conclusion, the Lewis and Secretor genotyping could be useful to predict,...
