EOD Regional Nodes

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 - Aortic (lateral [lumbar], Periaortic, NOS) - Iliac (common, external, internal [hypogastric], NOS) - Lateral (laterosacral) - Middle (promontorial) (Gerota’s node) - Obturator - Para-aortic - Paracervical - Parametrial - Pelvic, NOS - Presacral - Sacral - Uterosacral
