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).
