Overview
Staging of melanoma is essential to determine the prognosis. Staging is based on the 2010 AJCC TNM Classification[1] and is divided into stage 0 or melanoma in situ, stage I or invasive melanoma with good prognosis, stage II or high-risk melanoma, stage III or melanoma with regional lymph node metastasis, and stage IV or melanoma with distant metastasis.

Primary Tumor (T)[1]
T classification | Thickness | Ulceration status |
---|---|---|
TX: Primary tumor thickness cannot be assessed (eg, diagnosis by curettage) | Not applicable | Not applicable |
T0: No evidence of primary tumor (eg, unknown primary or completely regressed melanoma) | Not applicable | Not applicable |
Tis (Melanoma in situ) | Not applicable | Not applicable |
T1 | ≤ 1.0 mm | Unknown or unspecified |
T1a | < 0.8 mm | No ulceration |
T1b | < 0.8 mm | Ulceration present |
0.8 – 1.0 mm | With or without ulceration | |
T2 | > 1.0 – 2.0 mm | Unknown or unspecified |
T2a | > 1.0 – 2.0 mm | No ulceration |
T2b | > 1.0 – 2.0 mm | Ulceration present |
T3 | > 2.0 – 4.0 mm | Unknown or unspecified |
T3a | > 2.0–4.0 mm | No ulceration |
T3b | > 2.0–4.0 mm | Ulceration present |
T4 | > 4.0 mm | Unknown or unspecified |
T4a | > 4.0 mm | No ulceration |
T4b | > 4.0 mm | Ulceration present |
Regional Lymph Nodes (N)[1]
N Classification | Number of Nodes | Nodal Mass |
---|---|---|
NX | Lymph node metastasis cannot be assessed | |
N0 | No lymph node metastasis | |
N1a | 1 node | Micrometastasis |
N1b | 1 node | Macrometastasis |
N2a | 2 - 3 nodes | Micrometastasis |
N2b | 2 - 3 nodes | Macrometastasis |
N2c | 2 - 3 nodes | In-transit metastasis/Satellites without metastatic nodes |
N3 | ≥ 4 nodes | Metastatic nodes, Matted nodes, In-transit metastasis/Satellites with metastatic nodes |
Distant Metastasis (M)[1]
M Classification | Definition |
---|---|
M0 | No evidence of distant metastasis |
M1a | Metastasis to skin, subcutaneous tissue, or distant lymph nodes |
M1b | Metasitasis to lung |
M1c | Metastasis to any other visceral site with elevated LDH |
Clark Level[2]
Clark Level | Definition |
---|---|
Level I | Above the basement membrane |
Level II | Infiltrating the papillary dermis |
Level III | Between papillary dermis and reticular dermis |
Level IV | Infiltrating the reticular dermis |
Level V | Infiltrating subcutaneous tissue |
