CS Site-Specific Factor 1

CS Tumor Size - Second Largest Dimension

Notes

**Note 1**: According to AJCC tumor size is an important prognostic factor. The three dimensions of tumor size (length, width and height) are also important to collect if documented in the patient record. Record the largest dimension of tumor size in CS Tumor. Record the second largest dimension of tumor size in CS Site-Specific Factor 1 and the smallest dimension of tumor size in CS Site-Specific Factor 2. **Note 2**: Tumor size expressed as 4.0 centimeter (cm) x 3.0 cm x 2.0 cm is recorded as follows: * CS Tumor Size: 040 * CS Site-Specific Factor 1: 030 * CS Site-Specific Factor 2: 020 Tumor size expressed as "greater than 8 cm" is recorded as follows: * CS Tumor Size : 997 * CS Site-Specific Factor 1: 999 * CS Site-Specific Factor 2: 999
