  • TUMOR and STAGING DATA Primary Site Code
    SECTION IV - TUMOR and STAGING DATA Primary Site Code NAACCR Version 11.1 field "Primary Site", Item 400, columns 291-294 It is unclear how the 2007 MP/H rules may alter rules for assigning the best Primary Site Formatted: Left Code to each primary. Continue to use the following rules until new rules are issued. Enter the code for the site of origin from the Topography section of ICD-O-3. [Note that ICD-O-2 code C14.1, laryngopharynx, should not be used for diagnoses made on or after January 1, 1995. "Laryngopharynx" became an equivalent term under C13.9 (hypopharynx, NOS) as of this diagnosis date. Code C14.1 is not an ICD-O-3 code.] Enter the site code that matches the narrative primary site indicated in the medical record, or the site code most appropriate for the case. Site codes are found in ICD-O-3's Numerical Lists - Topography section (pages 45-65) and in its Alphabetic Index (pages 105-218). In ICD-O-3 primary site codes consist of the letter "C" followed by two digits, a decimal point, and a third digit. "C" should be entered but the decimal point should not be entered. Example: The primary site is "cardia of stomach". Look this up in the Alphabetic Index of ICD-O-3 under "stomach" or "cardia", and the corresponding code "C16.0" is found. Enter C160. Most sites include a third digit of "8" to be used for single tumors that overlap the boundaries of two or more anatomically contiguous subsites and whose exact point of origin cannot be determined, unless the combination of sites is specifically indexed elsewhere.

We analyzed 47 resected non-ampullary–duodenal carcinomas. Histologically, 78% were tubular-type adenocarcinomas mostly gastro-pancreatobiliary type and only 19% pure intestinal. Immunohistochemistry (n = 38) revealed commonness of ‘gastro-pancreatobiliary markers’ (CK7 55, MUC1 50, MUC5AC 50, and MUC6 34%), whereas ‘intestinal markers’ were relatively less common (MUC2 36, CK20 42, and CDX2 44%). Squamous and mucinous differentiation were rare (in five each); previously, unrecognized adenocarcinoma patterns were noted (three microcystic/vacuolated, two cribriform, one of comedo-like, oncocytic papillary, and goblet-cell-carcinoid-like).

Cases of these tumors sometimes tumor tissue from 10 cases of ductal breast cancer: eight show familial clustering as one manifestation of the autosomal premenopausal females and two males. Somatic loss of consti- dominant Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (5), which has also tutional heterozygosity was observed at loci on chromosome 13 been regionally mapped to lip (15), or have been observed in primary tumor tissue from three females and one male. In simultaneously as heterotropic tumors. two cases, specific loss ofheterozygosity at three distinct genetic These studies have presented experimental evidence in loci along the length of the chromosome was observed. In support of the two-step hypothesis for tumorigenesis by another case, concurrent loss of alleles at loci on chromosomes Knudson (6). They indicate that sporadic and inherited forms 2, 13, 14, and 20 was detected, whereas a fourth case showed of embryonal tumors affect the same loci and that the tumors loss of heterozygosity for chromosomes 5 and 13.

  • Breast Histology Coding Rules Text Format
    Breast Histology Coding Rules – Text C500-C509 (Excludes lymphoma and leukemia M9590-9989 and Kaposi sarcoma M9140) SINGLE TUMOR: IN SITU CARCINOMA ONLY (Single Tumor; all parts are in situ) Rule H1 Code the histology documented by the physician when the pathology/cytology report is not available. Note 1: Priority for using documents to code the histology • Documentation in the medical record that refers to pathologic or cytologic findings • Physician’s reference to type of cancer (histology) in the medical record Note 2: Code the specific histology when documented. Rule H2 Code the histology when only one histologic type is identified Rule H3 Code the more specific histologic term when the diagnosis is: • Carcinoma in situ, NOS (8010) and a specific carcinoma in situ or • Adenocarcinoma in situ, NOS (8140) and a specific adenocarcinoma in situ or • Intraductal carcinoma, NOS (8500) and a specific intraductal carcinoma (Table 1) Note: The specific histology may be identified as type, subtype, predominantly, with features of, major, with ___ differentiation, architecture or pattern. The terms architecture and pattern are subtypes only for in situ cancer. Rule H4 Code 8501/2 (comedocarcinoma, non-infiltrating) when there is non-infiltrating comedocarcinoma and any other intraductal carcinoma (Table 1). Example: Pathology report reads intraductal carcinoma with comedo and solid features. Code 8501/2 (comedocarcinoma). Rule H5 Code 8522/2 (intraductal carcinoma and lobular carcinoma in situ) (Table 3) when there is a combination of in situ lobular (8520) and intraductal carcinoma (Table 1). Rule H6 Code 8523/2 (intraductal carcinoma mixed with other types of in situ carcinoma) (Table 3) when there is a combination of intraductal carcinoma and two or more specific intraductal types OR there are two or more specific intraductal carcinomas.

  • Statistical Reflections Regarding the Significance of the Microscopic Examination in the Diagnosis of Mammary and Abdominal Neoplasias in Cats

In 41 cats were performed microscopic examination. Regarding the location of the primary tumors 70 cats had mammary tumors. Isolated, six cases of primary non-mammary tumors were diagnosed following necropsy and histopathology. Following cytopathological and histopathological examinations, 14 tumor types were identified, of which 3 benign and 11 malignant. Benign tumoral types consisted of lipoma, vesical leiomyoma and mammary adenoma. Diagnosed malignant cases consisted of simple mammary adenocarcinoma, solid adenocarcinoma, compact adenocarcinoma, hepatic cholangiocarcinoma, compact carcinoma, mixed pulmonar bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, hemangiosarcoma, mammaryKeywords: comedocarcinoma, solid carcinoma and mixed adenocarcinoma. cat, examination, mammary, microscopic, neoplasias Introduction being studied,et al. and it is one of the major morbidity The importance of the neoplastic disease, and mortalityet al causes in cats and dogs (Barbara,

  • Comparative Analysis of the Histopathological
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE J Bras Patol Med Lab. 2019; 55(1): 69-86. Comparative analysis of the histopathological and epidemiological profile of ductal and lobular breast carcinomas diagnosed at the Hospital de Clínicas da Universidade Federal do Paraná during 10.5935/1676-2444.20190009 the period 2008-2013 Análise comparativa do perfil histopatológico e epidemiológico dos carcinomas ductal e lobular da mama diagnosticados no Hospital de Clínicas da Universidade Federal do Paraná entre 2008 e 2013 Heloisa Z. Rocha; Graciele C. M. Manica; Lucia de Noronha; Edneia A. S. Ramos; Giseli Klassen Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR), Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil. ABSTRACT Introduction: Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide, and epidemiological studies may help understanding its mechanisms. Objective: To carry out a survey of the number of breast cancer cases diagnosed in a period of six years. Methods: The profile of breast cancers diagnosed in a tertiary hospital in Curitiba was compared with the literature, using a retrospective analysis of ductal/special types and lobular breast carcinoma reports issued between 2008 and 2013. Results: Three hundred twenty-seven (91.6%) cases of ductal/special types carcinoma and 30 (8.4%) cases of lobular carcinoma were diagnosed, totaling 357 samples. From these cases, 27 (7.5%) were carcinoma in situ (20 ductal and seven lobular) and 330 (92.4%) were invasive carcinoma (307 invasive ductal/special types and 23 lobular). The prevalence of breast cancer among women was 99.1% and the majority of patients were older than 50 years of age (67.2%). Regarding the União Internacional de Controle do Câncer/American Joint Committee on Cancer (UICC/AJCC) staging, 49.2% of the ductal/special types tumors were diagnosed in Stages I or II, while 56.6% of lobular carcinomas were diagnosed in Stages II or III/IV.
