FIGURE 1 Tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) stage based on the UICC-7 of a tumor with additional tumor nodules (ATNs) in the contralateral side (A) and multiple primary lung cancers (MPLCs) in both sides of the lung (B). In the case of a tumor with ATN in the contralateral side of the lung, the TNM stage is IVa. In case of MPLC, the TNM stage is determined by the highest stage of all lesions (stage Ib).
