Merkel Cell Carcinoma of the Penis

Primary Site Histology Staging Type
C600-C602, C608-C609 8247 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

C600 Prepuce C601 Glans penis C602 Body of penis C608 Overlapping lesion of penis C609 Penis, NOS **Note 1:** This schema is based on the UICC chapter *Merkel Cell Carcinoma of Skin,* pages 177-180. * These primary sites are not listed in this chapter of the UICC manual; however, they are included in this schema and TNM staged **Note 2:** In addition to directly assigning TNM, Summary Stage 2000 (SS2000) must be captured. If directly assigning SS2000, use the *Skin Except Eyelid* chapter on page 172 of the [SS2000 on-line manual](http://seer.cancer.gov/tools/ssm/SSSM2000-122012.pdf#page=172).
