CS Extension

This input is used for staging

Notes

**Note 1**: Ignore intraluminal extension to adjacent segment(s) of colon; code depth of invasion or extracolonic spread as indicated. **Note 2**: Mucinous tumors are identified by morphology codes 8480, 8481, and 8490. **Note 3**: One or more malignant satellite peritumoral nodules or tumor deposits (TD) in the periappendiceal adipose tissue of a primary carcinoma without histologic evidence of residual lymph node in the nodule may represent discontinuous spread, venous invasion with extravascular spread, or a totally replaced lymph node. Replaced nodes are counted as positive nodes and coded in CS Lymph Nodes. TD representing discontinuous spread or venous invasion are coded in CS Extension, code 450, and the number of TD representing discontinuous spread or venous invasion is coded in CS Site-Specific Factor 4. **Note 4**: Tumor that is adherent to other organs or structures, macroscopically, is classified cT4b. If tumor is present in adhesion(s) upon microscopic examination, the tumor is classified as pT4b. Use code 565 for macroscopic adhesions if no pathologic confirmation, and for pathologically confirmed tumor in adhesions. However, if no tumor is present in adhesion(s) upon microscopic examination, the classification is based upon extent of tumor invasion into or through the wall; use codes 000-160, 200, 400, 450, 500-550 as appropriate to describe the microscopically confirmed depth of tumor invasion for these cases. Use codes 600-650, 665, 700-810 to code invasion of underlying structures from the adherent tumor. **Note 5**: Codes 600-650 and 700-750are used for contiguous extension from the site of origin. Except for intraperitoneal metastases limited to the right lower quadrant (RLQ) of the abdomen for mucinous tumors, discontinuous involvement is coded in CS Mets at DX. **Note 6**: High-grade dysplasia is not always collected by cancer registries but, if collected, it should be coded 000 or 050.
