NAACCR XML: Tumor.numberOfExaminedParaAorticNodes




Description
Number of examined para-aortic nodes is the number of nodes examined based on para-aortic nodal dissection.
Rationale
Number of Examined Para-aortic Nodes is listed as a Registry Data Collection Variable in AJCC. This data item was previously collected as Corpus, CS SSF# 6.
Codes

    
        
            00
            No para-aortic nodes examined
        
        
            01-99
            1 - 99 para-aortic nodes examined

                (Exact number of para-aortic lymph nodes examined)
            
        
        
            X1
            100 or more para-aortic nodes examined
        
        
            X2
            Para-aortic nodes examined, number unknown
        
        
            X6
            No para-aortic lymph nodes removed, but aspiration or core biopsy of para-aortic node(s) only
        
        
            X8
            Not applicable: Information not collected for this case

                (If this item is required by your standard setter, use of code X8 will result in an edit error.)
            
        
        
            X9
            Not documented in medical record

                Cannot be determined, indeterminate if positive para-aortic nodes present

                Para-aortic lymph nodes not assessed or unknown if assessed
            
        
        
            
            
        
    

Each Site-Specific Data Item (SSDI) applies only to selected primary sites, histologies, and years of diagnosis. Depending on applicability and standard-setter requirements, SSDIs may be left blank.
