CONTEXT.—: The 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging manual changed the tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) classification systems of genitourinary malignancies in 2017. However, some of the changes appear not well appreciated or recognized by practicing pathologists. OBJECTIVE.—: To review the major changes compared with the 7th edition in cancers of the prostate, penis, testis, bladder, urethra, renal pelvis/ureter, and kidney and discuss the challenges that pathologists may encounter. DATA SOURCES.—: Peer-reviewed publications and the 8th and 7th editions of the . CONCLUSIONS.—: This article summarizes the updated staging of genitourinary malignancies, specifically highlighting changes from the 7th edition that are relevant to the pathologic staging system. Pathologists should be aware of the updates made in hopes of providing clarification and the remaining diagnostic challenges associated with these changes.
背景:2017 年,第 8 版美国癌症联合委员会(AJCC)分期手册改变了泌尿生殖系统恶性肿瘤的肿瘤、淋巴结、转移(TNM)分类系统。然而,一些变化似乎并没有被临床病理学家很好地理解或认识。
目的:回顾与第 7 版相比,前列腺、阴茎、睾丸、膀胱、尿道、肾盂/输尿管和肾脏癌症的主要变化,并讨论病理学家可能遇到的挑战。
数据来源:同行评议的出版物和第 8 版和第 7 版 AJCC 分期手册。
结论:本文总结了泌尿生殖系统恶性肿瘤的更新分期,特别强调了与病理分期系统相关的第 7 版的变化。病理学家应该了解这些更新,希望能够提供澄清,并了解与这些变化相关的剩余诊断挑战。
