[TNM classification of gynecologic malignancies : What remains to be done beyond 2017?].

For some gynecologic malignancies, there are disagreements between the most recent WHO and TNM classifications and the recommendations of the International Collaboration of Cancer Reporting. These discrepancies are addressed and discussed in this paper. The WHO definition for primary vaginal cancer does not match the TNM definition. The paper also discusses and provides TNM classifications for rare gynecologic tumors like primary malignant vulvar melanomas, sarcomas of the vulva, perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PECom) of the uterus, undifferentiated uterine sarcomas, and extra-intestinal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), and provides some recommendations for the reporting and categorization of regional lymph nodes in nonuterine serous pelvic cancer.
