Overview

According to The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC), there are four stages of insulinoma based on the TNM staging sysytem.

Staging

According to The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC), there are four stages of insulinoma based on the TNM staging sysytem:

TNM Classification

T	Primary Tumor
Tx	Primary tumor cannot be assessed
T0	No evidence of primary tumor
Tis	Carcinoma in situ
T1	Tumor limited to the pancreas, ≤2 cm in greatest dimension
T2	Tumor limited to the pancreas, >2 cm in greatest dimension
T3	Tumor extends beyond the pancreas but without involvement of the celiac axis or the superior mesenteric artery
T4	Tumor involves the celiac axis or the superior mesenteric artery (unresectable primary tumor)

N	Regional Lymph Nodes
NX	Regional lymph nodes cannot be assessed
N0	No regional lymph node metastasis
N1	Regional lymph node metastasis

M	Distant Metastases
M0	No distant metastasis
M1	Distant metastasis

Anatomic Stage/Prognostic Groups

Stage	T	N	M
0	Tis	N0	M0
IA	T1	N0	M0
IB	T2	N0	M0
IIA	T3	N0	M0
IIB	T1	N1	M0
	T2	N1	M0
	T3	N1	M0
III	T4	Any N	M0
IV	Any T	Any N	M1
