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
        00 No primary tumor identified  
        01 One tumor only  
        02 Two tumors present; bilateral ovaries involved with cystic carcinoma  
        03 Three tumors present  
        ..  
        ..  
        88 Information on multiple tumors not collected/not applicable for this site  
        89 Multicentric, multifocal, number unknown  
        99 Unknown if multiple tumors; not documented  
        Blank Information not collected for this diagnosis date (e.g., all cases diagnosed prior to 2007)  
Note: Codes 00 and 89 were added effective for 2011.
