Answer:
For cases diagnosed 2010 and forward, access the Hematopoietic Database at http://seer.cancer.gov/seertools/hemelymph.
If the bone is involved, code the primary site to bone. Langerhans more commonly starts in the bone and extends to the soft tissue.
If bone is not involved, code primary site to C492, Connective, subcutaneous and other soft tissues of lower limb and hip.
