The Féderation Internationale de Gynécologie et d’Obstétrique (FIGO) and the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) have designated staging to define vaginal cancer; the FIGO system is most commonly used[1]. The definitions of the AJCC's T, N, and M categories correspond to the stages accepted by FIGO.[2]
