A pathologic primary tumor TNM stage finding. The definition of pT3 stage finding depends on the particular type of cancer that it refers to; for example, for breast cancer, pT3 stage finding is defined as follows: cancer with tumor size more than 5.0 cm in greatest dimension; for kidney cancer, pT3 stage finding is defined as follows: cancer with tumor extending into major veins or perinephric tissues but not into the ipsilateral adrenal gland and not beyond Gerota\'s fascia.
