Notes

**Note 1:** For cases with positive metastases, Serum LDH is an additional data item that is predictor of survival outcome. * Serum LDH is coded in data item LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase) Level [#3869] **Note 2:** Use code 70 when the only information is “distant metastasis, NOS,” and there is no documentation regarding the specific metastases. If there are specific metastasis documented that are not listed in codes 10, 20, 30, or 40, assign code 50 for “other specified distant metastasis.”
