| stage 2 | Unfavorable site- urinary bladder, prostate, extremity, trunk, parameningeal, other; size <5 cm; N0; M0 |
| stage 3 | Unfavorable site- Bladder, prostate, extremity, trunk, parameningeal, other; size <5 cm; N1; M0 |
| stage 3 | Unfavorable site- Bladder, prostate, extremity, trunk, parameningeal, other; size >5 cm; N0 or N1; M0 |
| stage 4 | Favorable or unfavorable site- N0 or N1 ; M1 |
N0 = Regional nodes not clinically involved; N1 = Regional nodes clinically involved; M0 = No metastasis; M1 = distant metastasis
