Collaborative Stage

Note 1: Periosteum is a fibrous membrane that wraps the outer surface of bones. Cortical bone is the dense compact outer layer of the bone. Trabecular, cancellous, or spongy bone (spongiosa) is a porous network of tissue filling the interior of bone, decreasing weight and allowing room for blood vessels and marrow.
Note 2: AJCC assigns the T category based on size when involvement is limited to cortical bone. Involvement through cortical bone is required for assignment of T4a.
Note 3: The assignment of T1, T2 , and T3 categories for tumors of the lip and oral cavity 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 405, 410, 415, 755, 810, or 815 as appropriate to code CS Extension based on a statement of T when no other extension information is available.
Note 4: Use code 300 for localized tumor only if no information is available to assign code 100, 200, 405, 410, or 415.

^ For CS Extension codes 100-620 ONLY, the T category for AJCC 7 staging is assigned based on the value of CS Tumor Size, as shown in the Extension Size Table for this schema.
* For CS Extension codes 100-620 ONLY, the T category for AJCC 6 staging is assigned based on the value of CS Tumor Size, as shown in the Extension Size Table for this schema.
