Pleura (Including pleural mesothelioma)

Primary Site Histology Staging Type
C384 8000-9049, 9054-9136, 9141-9582, 9700-9701 Summary Stage only
C384 9050-9053 TNM 7 and Summary Stage

If you are working with a site/histology that only summary stages and you need to directly code it, please use the SEER Summary Stage 2000 manual

Notes

M-8000-9136,9141-9582,9700-9701
C384 Pleura, NOS

Note 1: This schema is based on the UICC chapter Pleural Mesothelioma, pages 147-150.

  • The TNM staging system applies only to pleural mesotheliomas
  • Peritoneal and pericardial mesotheliomas are not TNM staged

Note 2: In addition to directly assigning TNM, Summary Stage 2000 (SS2000) must be captured. If directly assigning SS2000, use the Pleura chapter on page 160 of the SS2000 on-line manual.
