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

C620 Undescended testis
C621 Descended testis
C629 Testis, NOS

Note 1: This schema is based on the UICC chapter Testis pages 249-254.

Note 2: Laterality must be coded for this site.

Note 3: The 7th Edition TNM pathologic stage group is derived from T, N, M and S stage. S stage is calculated from the following site-specific factors

  • SSF 13: Post-Orchiectomy Alpha Fetoprotein (AFP) Range
  • SSF 15: Post-Orchiectomy Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Range
  • SSF 16: Post-Orchiectomy Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Range

Note 4: In addition to directly assigning TNM, Summary Stage 2000 (SS2000) must be captured. If directly assigning SS2000, use the Testis chapter on page 234 of the SS2000 on-line manual.
