stage II testicular cancer
Term · Oncology and biomedicine · MLC-T-ONC-008114
Stage II is divided into stages IIA, IIB, and IIC. In stage IIA, cancer is found anywhere in the testicle and may have spread into the spermatic cord or scrotum. Cancer has spread to 1 to 5 nearby lymph nodes and the lymph nodes are 2 centimeters or smaller. All tumor marker levels are normal or slightly above normal. In stage IIB, cancer is found anywhere in the testicle and may have spread into the spermatic cord or scrotum. Cancer has spread to (1) one nearby lymph node and the lymph node is larger than 2 centimeters but not larger than 5 centimeters; or (2) more than 5 nearby lymph nodes and the lymph nodes are not larger than 5 centimeters; or (3) a nearby lymph node and the cancer has spread outside the lymph node. All tumor marker levels are normal or slightly above normal. In stage IIC, cancer is found anywhere in the testicle and may have spread into the spermatic cord or scrotum. Cancer has spread to a nearby lymph node and the lymph node is larger than 5 centimeters. All tumor marker levels are normal or slightly above normal.
