Abstract
The fifth edition of the TNM system is easily reproducible, although the number of lymph nodes required to evaluate metastatic node involvement is difficult to obtain in our environment. Our results suggest that a combined effort between surgeons and pathologists is needed to increase the number of patients that can be reliably staged with this TNM edition.
