Fields:

Message:

IF 514: Conflict among schema, CS Site-Specific Factor 16 (value) and CS Lymph Nodes (value)

IF 514: Conflict among schema, CS Site-Specific Factor 16 (value) and Regional Nodes Positive (value)

IF 514: Conflict among schema, CS Site-Specific Factor 16 (value) and RX Summ--Scope Reg LN Sur (value)

 

Specification:

This edit verifies that for cases coded using the MerkelCellPenis, MerkelCellScrotum, MerkelCellSkin, and MerkelCellVulva schemas, CS Site-Specific Factor 16 (Size of Metastasis in Lymph Nodes), RX Summ--Scope Reg LN Sur, and CS Lymph Nodes are coded consistently.

 

This edit is skipped if any of the following conditions are true:

  1. CS Site-Specific Factor 16 is blank or 988

  2. CS Lymph Nodes is blank

  3. RX Summ--Scope Reg LN Sur is blank

  4. Regional Nodes Positive is blank

  5. Behavior Code ICD-O-3 = 0 (benign) or 1 (borderline)

  6. CS schema is invalid

 

This edit first determines the CS schema by doing a function call to the CS Dynamic Link Library (dll). The function call passes Primary Site, Histologic Type ICD-O-3, and CS Site-Specific Factor25 (schema discriminator) to the dll and the CS schema name is returned.

 

If CS schema is MerkelCellPenis, MerkelCellScrotum, MerkelCellSkin, or MerkelCellVulva:

 

  1. If CS Site-Specific Factor16 = 000 (no regional lymph nodes involved), then CS Lymph:

  2. If CS Tumor Size/Ext Eval not = 2 or 8 then:

  3. If CS Lymph Nodes = 999 (unknown), then CS Site-Specific Factor16 must = 988 (not applicable) or 999 (unknown) or 998 (no histological examination of regional lymph nodes).

 

 

Historical Changes:

In the SEER*Edits software, the title of this edit is: IF320.

2011 Data Item Changes:  New edit - added to NAACCR v12.1 metafile.  

January 2013 NAACCR v12.2C - Sequence of edit logic changed in condition # 2: instead of checking if CS SSF 16 = 998, then Scope of Reg LN Surg must = 0, and Regional Nodes Positive must = 98, the edit now checks if
Scope of Regional LN Surg = 0, then CS SSF 16 must = 998 or 999 and Regional Nodes Positive must = 98.

2013 Data Item Changes:  - Changed "If CS Site-Specific Factor16 = 000, then CS Lymph          Nodes must = 000" to:

 If CS Site-Specific Factor16 = 000:

    A. CS Lymph Nodes must be coded as specified below:

         MerkelCellSkin: CS Lymph Nodes must = 000, 390, 400, 480, or 999

         MerkelCellPenis: CS Lymph Nodes must = 000, 410, 420, 550, or 999

         MerkelCellScrotum: CS Lymph Nodes must = 000, 400, 450, or 999

         MerkelCellVulva: CS Lymph Nodes must = 000, 510, 520, 700, or 999

04/2014  Function call to the CS Dynamic Link Library updated to call "CStage0205.dll" instead of "CStage.dll."
