EOD Regional Nodes

This input is used for staging

Notes

Note 1: Code only regional nodes and nodes, NOS, in this field. Distant nodes are coded in EOD Mets.

Note 2: When both the Federation Internationale de Gynecologie et d'Obstetrique (FIGO) stage and lymph node detail are available, record the code with lymph node detail in preference to a statement of FIGO stage.

Note 3: Regional lymph nodes include

  • Deep inguinal, NOS
  • Femoral
  • Inguinal, NOS
  • Inguinofemoral (groin)
  • Node of Cloquet or Rosenmuller (highest deep inguinal)
  • Superficial inguinal (femoral)
  • Bilateral/contralateral regional lymph node(s)
