NAACCR XML: Tumor.multiplicityCounter




Description
This data item is used to count the number of tumors (multiplicity) that are reported as a single primary, when present at the time of diagnosis or occurring later.
Rationale
Patients with multiple tumors reported as a single primary for surveillance purposes may have a worse prognosis or more extensive treatment than patients with a single tumor. This data item will make it possible to identify important information about these cases for data analysis.
Codes (refer to
    http://seer.cancer.gov/tools/mphrules/index.html for additional instructions).
