C440-C449, C510-C512, C518-C519, C600-C602, C608-C609, C632 8720-8790 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

C440 Skin of lip, NOS C441 Eyelid C442 External ear C443 Skin of other and unspecified parts of face C444 Skin of scalp and neck C445 Skin of trunk C446 Skin of upper limb and shoulder C447 Skin of lower limb and hip C448 Overlapping lesion of skin C449 Skin, NOS C510 Labium majus C511 Labium minus C512 Clitoris C518 Overlapping lesion of vulva C519 Vulva, NOS C600 Prepuce C601 Glans penis C602 Body of penis C608 Overlapping lesion of penis C609 Penis C632 Scrotum, NOS **Note 1:** This schema is based on the UICC chapter *Malignant Melanoma of Skin,* pages 172-176. * Primary sites C511, C512, C518, C519, C600-C602, and C608 are not listed in this chapter of the UICC manual; however, they are included in this schema and TNM staged **Note 2:** For melanoma of sites other than those above, use the appropriate site-specific schema. **Note 3:** Laterality must be coded for C441-C443, and C445-C447. For codes C443 and C445, if the tumor is midline (e.g., chin), use code 5 (midline) in the laterality field. **Note 4:** In addition to directly assigning TNM, Summary Stage 2000 (SS2000) must be captured. If directly assigning SS2000, use the *Melanoma of Skin, Vulva, Penis, and Scrotum* chapter on page 178 of the [SS2000 on-line manual](https://seer.cancer.gov/tools/ssm/ssm2000/SSSM2000-122012.pdf#page=178).
