Abstract: The tumor-node-metastasis(TNM)staging system is currently the most common tumor staging system worldwide. After examining tumors, nodes, and metastases(per TNM staging), the corresponding general stages can be determined, namely, stages Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ. The American Joint Committee on Cancer(AJCC)has developed a TNM staging standard that has been widely recognized and applied. The eighth edition of the tumor TNM staging system released by AJCC will be implemented globally by January 1, 2018. In this paper, the content of the thyroid cancer TNM staging standard in the eighth edition of AJCC and the changes relative to the seventh edition will be interpreted in detail.

Key words: Thyroid cancer, TNM staging, American Joint Committee on Cancer
