Message:
IF 515: Conflict among schema, CS Site-Specific Factor 16 [value] and CS Lymph Nodes [value]
IF 515: Conflict among schema, CS Site-Specific Factor 16 [value] and Regional Nodes Positive [value]
Specification:
This edit verifies that for cases coded using the Skin and Scrotum schemas, CS Site-Specific Factor 16 (Size of Lymph Nodes), Regional Nodes Positive, and CS Lymph Nodes are coded consistently.
This edit is skipped if any of the following conditions are true:
CS Site-Specific Factor16 is blank
CS Lymph Nodes is blank
Regional Nodes Positive is blank
Behavior Code ICD-O-3 = 0 (benign) or 1 (borderline)
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 Skin or Scrotum:
If CS Site-Specific Factor16 = 000 (no involved regional lymph nodes), then Regional Nodes Positive must = 00 (all nodes examined negative), 98 (no nodes examined) or 99 (unknown).
If CS Lymph Nodes = 000 (no regional lymph nodes involvement), then CS Site-Specific Factor16 must = 000 (no involved regional lymph nodes) or 988 (not applicable).
If CS Lymph Nodes = 999 (unknown), then CS Site-Specific Factor16 must = 988 (not applicable) or 999 (unknown if regional lymph nodes involved).
Historical Changes:
