Staging of oral cancer:

Stage I	T1, N0, M0
Stage II	T2, N0, M0
Stage III	T3, N0, M0 or T1, T2, T3, N1, M0
Stage IV	T4, N0, M0 or Any T, N2 or N3, M0 or Any T, any N, any M

Classification of oral cancer:

Primary, T0		No primary tumor
Tis	carcinoma in situ
T1	tumour 2 cm or less
T2	tumour 4 cm or less
T3	tumour > 4 cm
T4	tumour > 4 cm and deep invasion into muscle, bone, deep structures
Lymphatic node involvement, N0		No nodes
N1	single homolateral node < 3 cm
N2	node(s) homolateral < 6 cm
–N2a	metastasis in single ipsilateral lymph node more than 3 cm but not more than 6 cm in greatest dimension
–N2b	metastasis in multiple ipsilateral lymph nodes, none more than 6 cm in greatest dimension
–N2c	metasis in bilateral or contralateral lymph nodes, none more than 6 cm in greatest dimension
N3	nodes > 6 cm and/or bilateral
Tumor metastasis, M0		No metastasis
M1	metastasis noted
