Introduction

In this chapter, diagnostic aspects in documentation of tumor diseases will be discribed. Different aspects of diagnostical discriptions of tumor diseases are discribed by ICD-O (Oncology) and by further classifications to constitute the determination of expansion respectivly of the diseases stage.

Last one is mostly classified by the TNM-System.

Especially for hemato oncological diseases (Leukemias and Lymphomas), other systems (e.g. Ann-Arbor-Classification) are used. TNM-System discribes:

  • Expansion of primary tumor (extent repectivly spread in distant organs)
  • Affection of lymph nodes in lymph flow area
  • Exisistence of distant metastasis.

For not by TNM – System classifiable diseases or in addition to TNM-System there are a number of further classification systems:

  • Ann Arbor
  • Rai
  • Binet
  • CML-Phasen
  • FAB
  • Durie and Salmon
  • Gleason-Score

Discriptions can be found here: http://www.med.uni-giessen.de/akkk/gtds/grafisch/doku/bd5f.htm http://www.tumorzentren.de/tl_files/dokumente/adt_basis.pdf

This list probably will be always incomplete because of the medical progress.


ICD-O

Third Edition of ICD-O [DIMDI, WHO] is the topical one. ICD-O consists of two axes, Topography- and Morphology-Axis. In ICD-O, tumor can be classified by

  • Site
  • Tissue Structure (Histology)
  • Biological behaviour (Dignity)
  • Tissue grading (mostly in two or four stages)

In this case, tissue structure and tissue grading is redundant. Precisely: The first four digits of morphology-code describe tissue-type. The fifth one describes biological behaviour (dignity-code):

  • /0 = benign
  • /1 = neoplasm with uncertain or unknown behaviour
  • /2 = Cancer in situ
  • /3 = malignant, primary tumor
  • /6 = malignant, metastasis (not used in tumor documentation)
  • /9 = malignant, uncertain wether primary tumor or a metastatic

The sixth digit describes grading, differentiation or phenotype (Histology/Pathology):

  • 1 = Grade I, well differentiated (Low grade)
  • 2 = Grade II, moderately differentiated (Intermediate grade)
  • 3 = Grade III, poorly differentiated (High grade)
  • 4 = Grade IV, undifferentiated (High grade)
  • 9 = Grade IX, grade cannot be assessed

For Leukemias and Lymphomas, the sixth digit signifies the immunophenotype

  • 5 = T-Cell
  • 6 = B-Cell, Pre-B-Cell, B-Ancestor-Cell
  • 7 = Null-Cell, Not-T-Cell-Not-B-Cell
  • 8 = NK-Cell, Natural Killer Cell
  • 9 = Determination of Cell Type was not accomplished, not specified or not applicable

TNM System describes

  • Expansion of primary tumor (extent repectivly spread in distant organs)
  • Affection of lymph nodes in lymph flow area
  • Exisistence of distant metastasis

For the topography axis, there exists an (hierarchical) enlargement, the ‘localisation key’ (Wagner, G. (HRSG.): Tumorlokalisationsschlüssel, 5. Auflage, Springer Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, New York, Tokyo 1993), which can supply at some positions clinical relevant differentiation. The morphology axis is composed of a four-digit code for tissue basic structure, a characteristic number for dignity and an additional grading item. The key itself does not contain all possible combinations of histology and dignity, but points out those ones, for whome exist special discriptions. Vice versa not all combinations of basic structure and dignity are possible (so there is no ‘benign leukemia’). Not either there is a grading system available for all kinds of tumor. For some ones, additional information (for Example ‘Cell-line’) is used at the corresponding position.

Tumor Localization

For Tumor-Coding first of all, the site is important. It will be classified by the Topography -Axis of ICD-O. Topographical -Codes of ICD-10 are based on chapter II (Neoplasm –C 00 – C 97) of ICD-10. However, some of the topographical Codes of ICD-10 (Codes) are not used, because their content is discribed by histology- and digit-Codes of ICD-O. (e.g. Differentiation in situ/ infiltrated, melanoma vs. scin cancer).

Tumor Histology and Dignity

Furthermore, in ICD-O, tumor morphology i.e. tissue structure (histology) and biological behavior (dignity) is discribed by special Codes. Tumor histology is coded by a four-digit number, which is assumed of the morphology-axis of Standardized Nomenclature of Patholoy (SNOP). Dignity-Code is attendant on morphology-Code, seperated by /. Examples:

  • 8060/0 squamous epithelium - papillomatose
  • 8070/2 squamous epithelium – cancer in situ undifferentiated
  • 8070/3 squamous epithelium – cancer undifferentiated
  • 8070/6 squamous epithelium – cancer metastasis undifferentiated

Tumor Grading

Grading is derived from the comparison of primary tissue with the neoplasm of this tissue. There are five grading-degrees (s.o.) and further three degrees for Malignant Lymphoma. Registration of tumor grading is also provided in TNM.

Qualifier of Tumor Formular

ICD-O –Codes can be specified by the following qualifier:

Here ICD-O provides additionally the following codes for Lymphoma, which specify the Cell line: B-Cell, T-Cell, Null-Cell Lymphoma. ICD-O uses the Codes 1 – 9. A detailled System is discribed in Chapter 9 under 9.5.2 and 9.53.

9.6. Codes for TNM-Classification

The TNM¬ classification according to UICC is being a codesystem as a whole. Therefore all tables share the same OID for documentation purposes. An easy way to handle this is the definition of value sets, each with the respective permitted values. Each code may only be used in some documentation if the respective UICC edition is checkmarked in our table– which states that the respective code is a part of that edition .

Codes für Gleason¬Score Code Description German 1 Round to oval equal individual glands, lying close to each other, sharply demarcated from the surrounding area Runde bis ovale gleich große Einzeldrüsen, dicht nebeneinander liegend, scharf gegen die Umgebung abgegrenzt 2 Slightly less uniform single glands, separated by small amounts of stroma, less sharply defined tumor margin Etwas weniger uniforme Einzeldrüsen, getrennt durch geringe Mengen von Stroma, weniger scharf begrenzter Tumorrand 3 a) Irregularly large and irregularly shaped glands, usually with abundant stroma, sometimes also stored tightly irregular and indistinct tumor border Unregelmäßig große und unregelmäßig gestaltete Drüsen mit gewöhnlich reichlicherem Stroma, gelegentlich auch dicht gelagert, unregelmäßige und unscharfe Tumorgrenze b) Papillary or cribriform structures, sometimes in large gang¬like formations Papilläre oder kribriforme Strukturen, z.T. in großen gangähnlichen Bildungen 4 a) Large irregular Epithelformationen by glandular fusion ("fused glands") and branched glands with irregular infiltration into the surrounding area Große unregelmäßige Epithelformationen durch Drüsenverschmelzung („fused glands“) sowie verzweigte Drüsen mit unregelmäßiger Infiltration in die Umgebung b) Adenocarcinoma with prominent clear cytoplasm similar to clear cell adenocarcinomas of the kidney Adenokarzinom mit ausgeprägt klarem Zytoplasma ähnlich hellzelligen Adenokarzinomen der Niere 5 a) Circumscribed round epithelial clusters with mostly solid and cribriform construction, usually with central necrosis Scharf begrenzte runde Epithelhaufen mit meist solidem und kribriformem Bau, gewöhnlich mit zentraler Nekrose (comedo carcinoma¬like) (komedo¬karzinomähnlich) b) Irregularly shaped formations of an undifferentiated carcinoma, which only just discernible glandular formation or is identified vacuoles (signet ring¬like) than adenocarcinoma Unregelmäßig begrenzte Formationen eines undifferenzierten Karzinoms, das nur durch gerade noch erkennbare Drüsenbildung oder Vakuolen (siegelringähnlich) als Adenokarzinom zu identifizieren ist

Table 31: Loss of Differentiation according to Gleason¬Score19 (OID 1.2.276.0.76.5.402) Documentation by the GleasonSum (Gleason¬Score) as the sum of the two most dominating findings: Uniformly structured tumors: two times the points of above table. Non-uniformly structured tumors: points for the dominating share of findings (so-called primary grading) + points for second-largest share (secondary grading), if punch biopsy show more than two grades, the second component will be based on the most adverse component found.

9.8. Ann ¬Arbor ¬Codes Principal Stages Code Description I cancer is located in a single region, usually one lymph node and the surrounding area II cancer is located in two separate regions, an affected lymph node or organ and a second affected area, and that both affected areas are confined to one side of the diaphragm III cancer has spread to both sides of the diaphragm, including one organ or area near the lymph nodes or the spleen IV diffuse or disseminated involvement of one or more extralymphatic organs Table 33: Ann Arbor (OID 1.2.276.0.76.5.405)

Modifiers Code Description A absence of constitutional symptoms is denoted by adding an "A" B presence of constitutional (B-type) symptoms is denoted by adding a "B" Table 34: Ann¬ Arbor constitutional symptoms (OID 1.2.276.0.76.5.416)

Code Description E disease is "extranodal" (not in the lymph nodes) or has spread from lymph nodes to adjacent tissue. S the disease has spread to the spleen.

X the largest deposit is >10 cm large ("bulky disease"), or the mediastinum is wider than 1/3 of the chest on a chest X-ray.
