Abstract
In this Study, the historical development of TNM classification and the form-ing process of final edition of TNM is mentioned. Besides, the use of TNM for small cell lung cancer cases is strongly encouraged in the 7th edition of TNM, and it allows for proposals for new classification to be trialed for a period to assess whether they should be incorporated into future editions.
