What is stage I of cervical cancer?
Stage 0Also called carcinoma in situ, stage 0 means that cancerous cells that have not invaded deeper tissues. The cells are superficial and are only found on the surface.Stage IIn stage I, cancerous cells have invaded the cervix, and cells are no longer just at the surface. Cancer is still confined to the cervix and has not spread.* Stage IA: This is the earliest form of stage I cervical cancer. The cancer can only be identified under microscopic examination. *** Stage IA1: The invasion area is less than 3mm(1/8 inch) deep and less than 7mm (1/4 inch) wide.** Stage IA2: The invasion area is between 3 mm and 5 mm (about 1/5 inch) deep and less than 7 mm (about 1/4 inch) wide.* Stage IB: This stage indicated that cancer can be seen without a microscope. It also include cancers that have invaded the connective tissue of the cervix, deeper than 5mm (1/5 inch).** Stage IB1: Cancer is no more than 4 centimeters large (1 3/4 inches).** Stage IB2: Cancer is larger than 4 centimeters (1 3/4 inches) *Stage IIIn stage II, the cancer has spread to nearby tissues, but is still contained within the pelvic area.* Stage IIA: Cancer has spread to the upper part of the vagina. The lower third of the vagina has not been affected.* Stage IIB: In this stage, cancer has spread to tissue near the cervix. This tissue is called parametrial tissue. *Stage IIIThis stage indicates that cancer has spread to the lower portion of the vagina. It could have also spread to the pelvic wall in this stage.* Stage IIIA: Cancer has spread to the lower part of the vagina and is contained in that area.* Stage IIIB: Cancer has spread to the pelvic wall. This also includes cancer that blocks the flow of urine to the bladder. *Stage IVIn stage IV, the cancer has spread to other areas of the body. This is the most advanced stage of cervical cancer.* Stage IVA: This stage includes cancer that has spread to areas close to the cervix, such as the bladder or rectum.* Stage IVB: Stage IVB cervical cancer is not considered curable. In this stage, cancer has spread to distant areas of the body, like the lungs.

What is the lfe expectancy of primary bowel cancer and secondary spine cancer?
Colon cancer that has spread to the spine is considered metastatic disease or stage IV cancer. The 5 year survival rate for stage IV colon cancer is 5%. This means that on average only 5% of people will live for 5 years with the disease.
Can cervical cancer be cured in it fifth stage?
Cancer is spread through the body in what are considered 4 stages. Think of the body being sectioned into 4 quadrants: the dividing line between Stage I & Stage II being a line that runs from head to abdomen; Stage II & Stage III divided by the diaphragm. Having said that, Stage V does not exist. Cervical Cancer can metastases into Stage IV, wherein remission is harder to bring about, but not necessarily unknown.

What does stage IV melanoma mean it was find in the head?
Stage IV is dependant upon how far from the primary site the cancer was found. Since it is melanoma, it harder to find the primary site, since this cancer affects skin cells. Stage 0 Carcinoma in situ (early cancer that is present only in the layer of cells in which it began). Stage I, Stage II, and Stage III Higher numbers indicate more extensive disease: greater tumor size, and/or spread of the cancer to nearby lymph nodes and/or organs adjacent to the primary tumor. Stage IV The cancer has spread to another organ
If breast cancer goes untreated how long will you live?
One to two years is considered typical for untreated breast cancer. Once the cancer reaches stage 4 it is 1 to 2 months.
Which breast cancer patients have the best chance for survival?
The breast cancer survival rate varies greatly on the patient and their response to treatment. Breast cancer survival rates for early detection are 100%. Stage 2 breast cancer has a survival rate of 93 percent, the stage 3 survival rate is 72 percent, and the stage 4 survival rate is 22 percent.
What is maximum life span for someone with stage 3 stomach cancer?
When someone is diagnosed with cancer of any type, the doctor usually provides a numerical stage number. Stage 1 is the least invasive type of cancer and is generally considered to be an early stage. Hence, stage 4 is just the opposite, normally describing cancers that are rather invasive or progressed. Therefore, stage 4 cancers are generally discussed in conjunction with anticipated life expectancy questions
What can you tell me about stage 3 lung cancer?
Diaphragm cancer, or any cancer that is classified as stage 3 means it has spread to the lymph nodes. The lymph nodes accelerate the spread of the disease.
What is locally advanced breast cancer?
This means the cancer is larger than 2 inches or has spread to other nearby tissue, such as underarm lymph nodes. Locally advanced breast cancer is considered Stage III.
