assign_esmo2013(stage_full, grade, hist_gr)

Arguments

stage_full

FIGO stage: I, II, III, IV with substages

grade

tumour grade: 1, 2, 3

hist_gr

histological subtype group: endometrioid or non-endometrioid

Value

ESMO 2013 assigned into "low", "intermediate", or "high". Unassignable cases are NA.

Details

ESMO 2013 is assigned using stage, grade, and histological subtype group into low, intermediate, and high risk based on the following criteria:

  • low:

    • stage IA, grade 1/2, with endometrioid type

  • intermediate:

    • stage IA, grade 3, with endometrioid type

    • stage IB, grade 1/2, with endometrioid type

  • high:

    • all stages with non-endometrioid type

    • stage IB, grade 3, with endometrioid type

    • stage II or higher

Note

Assignment starts from the high group first as the criteria are not mutually exclusive.
