FIGO stands for International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO).

it's the scientific language that doctors and pathologist use when speaking about the cancer and the hallmark characteristics of each stage.

Here is an explanation of FIGO in endometrial cancer. FIGO Grade refers to the organization and appearance of the cells that were obtained during biopsy. Typically FIGO Grade is assigned by the pathologist who views the biopsy and writes the pathology report.

American Cancer Society: Endometrial Cancer Stages:

Does this help to explain?
