Collaborative Stage for TNM 7 - Revised 09/15/2009 [ Schema ]

CS Lymph Nodes

Note 1: Code only regional nodes and nodes, NOS, in this field. Distant nodes are coded in the field Mets at DX.
Note 2: If information about named regional lymph nodes is available, use codes 100, 400, 420, or 500, rather than codes 600, 650, 700, 710, or 720.

* For codes 100-500 and 800 ONLY: when CS Lymph Nodes Eval is 0, 1, 5, or 9, the N category is assigned from the Lymph Nodes Clinical Evaluation Table, using Reg LN Pos and CS Site-Specific Factor 1; when CS Lymph Nodes Eval is 2, 3, 6, 8, or not coded, the N category is determined from the Lymph Nodes Pathologic Evaluation Table Also Used When CS Reg Nodes Eval is Not Coded using Reg LN Pos.
^ For codes 100-500 and 800 ONLY: when CS Lymph Nodes Eval is 0, 1, 5, or 9, the N category is assigned from the Lymph Nodes Clinical Evaluation 7th Table, using Reg LN Pos and CS Site-Specific Factor 1; when CS Lymph Nodes Eval is 2, 3, 6, 8, or not coded, the N category is determined from the Lymph Nodes Pathologic Evaluation 7th Table Also Used When CS Reg Nodes Eval is Not Coded using Reg LN Pos.
