You may use a physician’s statement of the T category if this is the only information in the medical record.\n* If the tumor appears to be in the T1, T2 or T3 categories, but no size or category is specified, assign TX\n\n**Note 7:** For the following descriptions, assign the appropriate T category (T1, T2 or T3) based on the tumor size.\n\n Submucosa invasion\n\n Confined to vulva, NOS\n Localized, NOS",
