Diagnostic Confirmation [NAACCR #390]
Histologic Type ICD-0-3 [NAACCR #522]
Over-ride Leuk, Lymphoma [NAACCR #2070]
IF 332: Conflict among Diagnostic Confirmation [value ], Histologic Type ICD-O-3 [value], and Over-ride Leuk, Lymphoma [value]
This edit is skipped if Histology Type ICD-O-3 is blank.
If a case has been previously reviewed and accepted as coded (Over-ride Leuk, Lymphoma = 1), no further checking is done.
If Histologic Type ICD-O-3 = 9590 - 9992 (lymphoma and leukemia) then Diagnostic Confirmation cannot be 6 (direct visualization).
If Diagnostic Confirmation is 3 (positive histology PLUS positive immunophenotyping AND/OR positive genetic studies), then Histologic Type ICD-O-3 must = 9590-9992.
Since lymphoma and leukemia are almost exclusively microscopic diagnoses, this edit forces review of any cases of lymphoma that have diagnostic confirmation 6 (direct visualization) or 8 (clinical), and any leukemia with a diagnostic confirmation of 6 (direct visualization).
Check that the Histologic Type and Diagnostic Confirmation are correctly coded. Remember that positive hematologic findings and bone marrow specimens are included as histologic confirmation (code 1 in Diagnostic Confirmation) for leukemias. Correction of errors may require inspection of the abstracted text, either online or as recorded on a paper abstract.
If upon review, all items are correct as coded, an over-ride flag may be set so that the case will not be considered in error when the edit is run again. Enter a 1 in the field Over-ride Leuk, Lymphoma to indicate that the coding is correct.
HISTOLOGIC TYPE 9835/3
DIAGNOSTIC CONFIRMATION 6 (DIRECT VISUALIZATION)
On review, this leukemia diagnosis was based on a hematologic study, CBC. Correct the Diagnostic Confirmation code to 1 (Positive Histology).
