CS Extension

This input is used for staging

Notes

**Note 1**: AJCC does not include a Tis category for Neuroendocrine Tumors (NET)) of the rectum/rectosigmoid. CS Extension code 000 is mapped to TX for AJCC stage and in situ Summary Stage. **Note 2**: For rectosigmoid, ignore intraluminal extension to adjacent segment(s) of colon and rectum; code depth of invasion or rectosigmoidal spread as indicated. **Note 3**: The assignment of the T1 categories for NETs of the colon/rectum is based on tumor size. A physician's statement of the T category may be used to code both 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. Use code 170, 180, 190, 210, 410, and 810 as appropriate to code CS Extension based on a statement of T when no other extension information is available. **Note 4**: Use code 300 for localized tumor only if no information is available to assign a more specific code. **Note 5**: Use code 570 for tumor with macroscopic adhesions to other organs or structures and for pathologically confirmed tumor in adhesions. However, if no tumor is present in adhesions upon microscopic examination, use lower codes to describe the microscopically confirmed depth of tumor invasion for these cases.
