he TNM staging system for cervical cancer is analogous to the FIGO stage.

* Stage 0 - full-thickness involvement of the epithelium without invasion into the stroma (carcinoma in situ)
* Stage I - limited to the cervix
o IA - diagnosed only by microscopy; no visible lesions
+ IA1 - stromal invasion less than 3 mm in depth and 7 mm or less in horizontal spread
+ IA2 - stromal invasion between 3 and 5 mm with horizontal spread of 7 mm or less
o IB - visible lesion or a microscopic lesion with more than 5 mm of depth or horizontal spread of more than 7 mm
+ IB1 - visible lesion 4 cm or less in greatest dimension
+ IB2 - visible lesion more than 4 cm
* Stage II - invades beyond cervix
o IIA - without parametrial invasion, but involve upper 2/3 of vagina
o IIB - with parametrial invasion
* Stage III - extends to pelvic wall or lower third of the vagina
o IIIA - involves lower third of vagina
o IIIB - extends to pelvic wall and/or causes hydronephrosis or non-functioning kidney
* IVA - invades mucosa of bladder or rectum and/or extends beyond true pelvis
* IVB - distant metastasis
