CS Extension

This input is used for staging

Notes

**Note 1**: AJCC does not include a Tis or TX category for melanoma of mucosa of head and neck sites. CSExtension codes of 000 and 999 are mapped to NA and AJCC stage group is derived as NA. **Note 2**: AJCC does not include a T1 or T2 category for mucosal melanoma of head and neck sites. **Note 3**: Use codes 310 and 315 for extension involving the mucosa only of adjacent sites. Use higher codes for extension involving deeper tissues of the primary or adjacent sites. **Note 4**: Use code 300 for localized tumor only if no information is available to assign code 105, 205, 250, 440, or 510. **Note 5**: Use code 440, 725, 810, or 815 if the physician's assignment of T category is the only information available about the extent of the tumor.

In CSv1 extension to the orbit was included in both codes 650 and 700. In addition the instructions for coding invasion of orbital bone were not clear. Codes 650 and 700 should be reviewed for orbital involvement. Involvement of bone of floor of orbit should be coded 760, and other orbit involvement should be coded 790.
