Hello
Your question about the staging of anal cancer is very pertinent. The most common plan for tumor staging applies to all cancers. This is the T (tumor size) N (lymph nodes) and M (presence or absence of metastasis) staging system. This system helps define the tumor presence and helps define the treatment approach recommendations.
