Lint: perihilar-cholangiocarcinoma-staging

Acronyms
warning

"Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma staging is, for prognostication, most commonly conducted using the TNM staging classification of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)/Union for International Cancer Control (UICC). As of 2018, the staging criteria are in their 8th edition and reflected below 1. These criteria apply to hilar/perihilar cholangiocarcinomas (Klatskin tumour), while cancers of the intrahepatic and distal bile ducts are staged differently."

Line 1:120 · 'TNM' has no definition. Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience.
