Immunotherapy/Other
Therapy--Heme & Lymphoid Neoplasms: Is the elimination of immunosuppression
treatment coded as other treatment? An example is when a post-transplant
patient develops a malignant myeloproliferative neoplasm that subsides when
immunosuppression drugs are stopped.
Do not code as a treatment. Record the cessation of
immunosuppressive drug treatment in text to explain the patient’s change in
disease status.
Reportability/Behavior--Ovary: Is ovarian mucinous
borderline tumor with foci of multifocal intraepithelial carcinoma reportable?
Report ovarian mucinous borderline tumor with foci of
multifocal intraepithelial carcinoma. The foci of intraepithelial carcinoma
makes this reportable. See the list of synonyms for in situ in the SEER Manual,
Behavior Code data item.
