The FIGO staging system is a set of international rules for describing how far a gynecologic cancer has spread. It’s maintained by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) and is used alongside TNM staging for cancers of the ovary/fallopian tube/peritoneum, endometrium, cervix, vulva, and vagina.
FIGO Staging – Gynecologic Cancers (Simplified)
Educational tool to approximate FIGO stage groups (I–IV) for ovarian, endometrial, and cervical cancers based on overall extent of disease. For trained health professionals only.
- Stage I – Tumor confined to the organ of origin.
- Stage II – Direct extension into adjacent pelvic organs / tissues.
- Stage III – Regional spread (e.g. pelvic/para-aortic nodes, pelvic/abdominal peritoneum).
- Stage IV – Invasion of bladder/rectal mucosa and/or distant metastases.
Stage Group & Interpretation
Select the cancer type and the best-fitting extent description, then click “Calculate FIGO Stage Group” to see the simplified stage and narrative interpretation.
This tool is intended purely as an educational adjunct for clinicians already familiar with FIGO staging. It approximates stage groups only and does not substitute for full staging guidelines, multidisciplinary discussion, or national/international protocols. It must not be used by patients or families for self-staging or prognosis.
