Breast cancer is staged based on the size of the tumor, whether it has spread to nearby lymph nodes, and whether it has spread to other parts of the body. The stages of breast cancer are:
– Stage 0: Non-invasive ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), where abnormal cells are confined to the breast ducts.
See less– Stage I: Invasive breast cancer that is small (less than 2 cm) and has not spread to the lymph nodes.
– Stage II: Invasive breast cancer that is either larger than 2 cm or has spread to the nearby lymph nodes.
– Stage III: Invasive breast cancer that is either very large, has spread to many lymph nodes, or has invaded the chest wall or skin.
– Stage IV: Invasive breast cancer that has spread to distant organs, such as the lungs, liver, bones, or brain. This is also called metastatic breast cancer.
