STAGE I
Stage I breast cancer. In stage IA, the tumor is 2 centimeters or smaller and has not spread
outside the breast. In stage IB, no tumor is found in the breast or the tumor is 2
centimeters or smaller. Small clusters of cancer cells (larger than 0.2 millimeter but not
larger than 2 millimeters) are found in the lymph nodes.
Cont.
STAGE II A
Stage IIA breast cancer. No tumor is found in the breast and cancer is found in 1 to 3
axillary lymph nodes or lymph nodes near the breastbone (left panel); OR the tumor is 2
centimeters or smaller and cancer is found in 1 to 3 axillary lymph nodes or lymph nodes
near the breastbone (middle panel); OR the tumor is larger than 2 centimeters but not
larger than 5 centimeters and has not spread to the lymph nodes (right panel).
STAGE II B
Stage IIB breast cancer. The tumor is larger than 2 centimeters but not larger than 5
centimeters and small clusters of cancer cells are found in the lymph nodes (left panel);
OR the tumor is larger than 2 centimeters but not larger than 5 centimeters and cancer is
found in 1 to 3 axillary lymph nodes or lymph nodes near the breastbone (middle panel);
OR the tumor is larger than 5 centimeters and has not spread to the lymph nodes (right
panel).
Stage IIIA
Stage IIIA breast cancer. No tumor is found in the breast or the tumor may be any size
and cancer is found in 4 to 9 axillary lymph nodes or lymph nodes near the breastbone
(left panel); OR the tumor is larger than 5 centimeters and small clusters of cancer cells
(larger than 0.2 millimeter but not larger than 2 millimeters) are found in the lymph
nodes (middle panel); OR the tumor is larger than 5 centimeters and cancer is found in
1 to 3 axillary lymph nodes or lymph nodes near the breastbone (right panel).
STAGE IIIB
Stage IIIB breast cancer. The tumor may be any size and cancer has spread to the chest wall
and/or to the skin of the breast and caused swelling or an ulcer. Cancer may have spread
to axillary lymph nodes or lymph nodes near the breastbone. Cancer that has spread to
the skin of the breast may be inflammatory breast cancer.
STAGE IIIC
Stage IIIC breast cancer. No tumor is found in the breast or the tumor may be any size and
may have spread to the chest wall and/or the skin of the breast. Also, cancer has spread to
10 or more axillary lymph nodes (left panel); OR to lymph nodes above or below the
collarbone (middle panel); OR to axillary lymph nodes and lymph nodes near the
breastbone (right panel).
STAGE IV
In
inflammatory
breast
cancer, cancer has spread to the skin of
the breast and the breast looks red and
swollen and feels warm. The redness
and
warmth
occur
because
the cancer cells block the lymph
vessels in the skin. The skin of the
breast may also show the dimpled
appearance called peau dorange (like
the skin of an orange). There may not
be any lumps in the breast that can be
felt. Inflammatory breast cancer may
be stageIIIB, stage IIIC, or stage IV.

Mammography screening
Mammography screening is the only screening
method that has proven to be effective. It can
reduce breast cancer mortality by 20 to 30% in
women over 50 yrs old in high-income
countries when the screening coverage is over
70% (IARC, 2008). Mammography screening is
very complex and resource intensive and no
research of its effectiveness has been
conducted in low resource settings.
