In a previous article, we took a look at the first two stages of ovarian cancer. We can now turn our attention to the last two.
In stage III, the cancer is becoming more advanced as in addition to being in one or both ovaries, the cancer has spread past the pelvis to the abdominal lining and may have also spread to the nearby lymph nodes. Stage III is also divided into IIIA, B, and C.
In stage IIIA, cancer cells are present in small amounts in parts of the abdomen as well as one or both ovaries.
In stage IIIB, cancer cells are also present in amounts less than two centimeters (three-fourths of an inch) in parts of the abdomen.
In the final subsection of stage III, IIIC, ovarian cancer has either spread to the nearby lymph nodes or cancer cells are present in amounts greater than two centimeters (three-fourths of an inch) in parts of the abdomen.
The last and most advanced stage of ovarian cancer that I would like to discuss is stage IV. In this stage, the cancerous cells?are present in one or both ovaries and have spread to other organs in the body, such as the liver or lungs.
These are the main stages of ovarian cancer. It should be noted that there can be one final stage and that is where the cancer is recurrent. This is when the cancer comes back in one of the organs of the body after it has already been treated.
Laura Guthrie is a former cancer patient who successfully recovered. She now shares her best of the best information to give back.
