CS Extension

This input is used for staging

Notes

**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**: Give priority to coding depth of invasion or spread outside the small intestine for tumor with intraluminal or lateral extension to adjacent segment(s) of small intestine. **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 appendix 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.
