Behavior Code ICD-O-3 [NAACCR #523]

Message:
IF 824: Breast Schema: Conflict among CS Lymph Node Eval and CS Lymph Nodes.
Specification:
The purpose of this edit is to verify that, for cases coded using the Breast Schema, that CS Lymph Nodes and CS Lymph Node Eval are coded consistently per Note 5 under CS Lymph Nodes:
The purpose of this edit is to verify that, for cases coded using the Breast Schema, that CS Lymph Nodes and CS Lymph Nodes Eval are coded consistently per Note 6 under CS Lymph Nodes: Note 6: For the breast schema, the choice of the N category is dependent on the CS Lymph Nodes Eval field. There are certain CS Lymph Nodes codes that can only be used if the nodes are evaluated clinically (CS Lymph Nodes Eval is coded 0, 1, 5, or 9), which will be designated as "Evaluated clinically:" at the beginning of the code description. Similarly, there are certain CS Lymph Nodes codes that can only be used if the nodes are evaluated pathologically (CS Lymph Nodes Eval is coded 2, 3, 6, or 8), and these will be designated as "Evaluated pathologically:". All other codes can be used for clinical or pathologic evaluation.
This edit is skipped if any of the following conditions are true:
CS Lymph Nodes is empty
CS Lymph Node Eval is empty
Behavior Code ICD-O-3 = 0 (benign) or 1 (borderline)
CS schema is invalid
This edit will also allow CS Lymph Nodes codes of 260 and 790 with CS Lymph Node Eval codes of 0, 1, 5, or 9, since 260 and 790 could indicate clinical lymph node involvement.
This edit first determines the correct 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 schema is Breast schema:
If CS Lymph Nodes = 255, 257, 510, 610, 735, or 810, then CS Lymph Nodes Eval must = 0, 1, 5, or 9.
If CS Lymph Nodes = 050, 130, 150, 155, 250, 258, 520, 620, 710, 720, 730, or 815, then CS Lymph Nodes Eval must = 2, 3, 6, or 8.
Historical Changes:
In the SEER*Edits software, this edit is IF213.
4/2009: Edit IF #824 added to match new CS edit added to NAACCR v11.3A metafile.
2010 Data Changes: CCR names (CS LN; CS Reg LN Eval; Date DX; Site) changed to NAACCR names. Per NAACCR v12.0:
Edit name changed from 'CS Reg Nodes Eval, Lymph Nodes, Breast Schema(CS)' to 'CS Lymph Nodes Eval, Lymph Nodes, Breast Schema(CS)'.
Data item name changed from 'CS Reg Nodes Eval' to 'CS Lymph Nodes Eval'
Edit modified to get schema name from function call to CS dll.
Edit was modified to check 3-digit CS Lymph Nodes codes (per CSv2) instead of 2-digit CSv1 codes. Also added code '255'.
2011 Data Changes: Per NAACCR v12.1:
- Updated logic to match Note 6 which replaced Note 5.
Changed logic from:
1. If CS Lymph Nodes Eval = 0, 1, 5, or 9, then CS Lymph Nodes must = 000, 255, 260, 290, 510, 600, 740, 750, 760, 770, 780, 790, 800, and 999.
2. If CS Lymph Nodes Eval = 2, 3, 6, or 8, then CS Lymph Nodes must not = 290 or 510.
To:
1. If CS Lymph Nodes = 255, 257, 510, 610, 735, or 810, then CS Lymph Nodes Eval must = 0, 1, 5, or 9.
2. If CS Lympoh Nodes = 050, 130, 150, 155, 250, 258, 520, 620, 710, 720, 730, or 815, then CS Lymph Nodes Eval must = 2, 3, 6, or 8.
04/2014 Function call to the CS Dynamic Link Library updated to call "CStage0205.dll" instead of "CStage.dll."
