Question:

MP/H Rules/Histology--Ovary: How is histology coded for "serous carcinoma, papillary invasive pattern"?

Discussion:

Answer:

For cases diagnosed 2007 or later, code the histology 8441/3 [Serous carcinoma, NOS]. Use the Other Sites rules. Start with rule H8 and stop at rule H11. "Pattern" is not one of the terms used to identify a specific type (See H16), so papillary is ignored.
