FIGO staging system

The FIGO staging systems are determined by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (Fédération Internationale de Gynécologie et d’Obstétrique).

In general, there are five stages:

• stage 0: carcinoma in situ (common in cervical, vaginal, and vulval cancer)
• stage I: confined to the organ of origin
• stage II: invasion of surrounding organs or tissue
• stage III: spread to distant nodes or tissue within the pelvis
• stage IV: distant metastasis(es)
