Collaborative Stage

Note 1: AJCC does not include a Tis category for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). Any case with a CS Extension code of 000 is mapped to TX for AJCC 7 stage and in situ Summary Stage.
Note 2: Ignore intraluminal extension to adjacent segment(s) of colon/rectum or to the ileum from the cecum; code depth of invasion or extracolonic spread as indicated.
Note 3: The assignment of T categories for GISTs is based on tumor size. A physician's statement of the T category may be used to code CS Tumor Size and/or CS Extension if this is the only information in the medical record regarding one or both of these fields. However the two fields are coded independently: for example the record may document size but not extension, other than the physician's statement of the T category. Use codes 170, 210, 250, and 270 as appropriate to code CS Extension based on a statement of T when no other extension information is available.
Note 4: Use code 150 only if GIST is described as arising in a polyp. Do not use this code for GIST described as arising in the wall of the colon and extending into the lumen with a polypoid appearance.
Note 5: Use code 300 for localized cases only if no information is available to assign a more specific code.
Note 6: Use code 570 for tumor with macroscopic adhesions to other organs or structures and for pathologically confirmed tumor in adhesions. However, if no tumor is present in adhesion(s) upon microscopic examination, use lower codes to describe the microscopically confirmed depth of tumor invasion for these cases (excluding adherence to liver, see Note 7).
Note 7: Adherence to the liver capsule is not considered distant metastasis. Use code 570 for any adherence to the liver capsule.
Note 8: Codes 600-800 are used for contiguous extension from the site of origin. Discontinuous involvement is coded in CS Mets at DX.Code

^ For CS Extension codes 100-800 ONLY, the T category for AJCC 7 staging is assigned based on the value of CS Tumor Size, as shown in the Extension Size AJCC 7 Table for this schema.
