Lymph Nodes Mets at DX AJCC 6 Table - returning N
Notes
**Note 1**: For CS Lymph Nodes codes 200 and 250 ONLY, the N and M categories for AJCC 6 staging and the 'c' and 'p' descriptors for N and M are assigned based on the values in CS Lymph Nodes, CS Nodes Eval, CS Mets at DX, and CS Mets Eval as shown in this table. **Note 2**: Not all users of Collaborative Stage collect the evaluation fields. Each empty cell in the table represents a "blank" or invalid code in the respective CS Nodes Eval or CS Mets Eval field. **Note 3**: If CS Nodes Eval and/or CS Mets Eval is "blank" or invalid (empty cell in the table), the N and M categories where CS Lymph Nodes = 200 or 250 are derived as if CS Nodes Eval and/or CS Mets Eval were coded as unknown or "9". No values are derived for the CS Lymph Nodes Eval and CS Mets Eval fields if both are "blank" or invalid; ERROR is derived for both CS Lymph Nodes Eval and CS Mets Eval if one is completed with a valid code and the other is invalid or empty.| CS Lymph Nodes | CS Nodes Eval | CS Mets Eval | CS Mets at DX | N Staging Basis | N Category |
