Definition |
A pathologic primary tumor TNM stage finding. The definition of pT2 stage finding depends on the particular type of cancer that it refers to; for example, for breast cancer, pT2 stage finding is defined as follows: cancer with tumor size more than 2.0 cm, but not more than 5.0 cm in greatest dimension; for colorectal cancer, pT2 stage finding is defined as follows: cancer with invasion into the muscularis propria.
