CS Site-Specific Factor 4

Sarcomatoid Features

Notes

**Note 1**: Sarcomatoid morphology may be manifested by any renal cell carcinoma. The presence of sarcomatoid component in a renal cell carcinoma may be prognostically important. **Note 2**: Record the presence or absence of sarcomatoid features as documented anywhere in the pathology report. Assign code 000 if pathologic examination of the primary site is performed, the pathology report is available for review, and sarcomatoid features are not mentioned.
