Reportability/Histology--Soft Tissue: Is superficial CD34 positive fibroblastic tumor reportable and if so what histology code should be used? See Discussion.
Patient had a left thigh soft tissue mass excision on 7/24/24 and was diagnosed with superficial CD34 positive fibroblastic tumor. Margins were narrowly free of disease. Tumor size was 5.5 cm x 4.4 cm x 3.9 cm. The diagnosis was confirmed.
Do not report superficial CD34-positive fibroblastic tumor (8810/1) of the thigh.

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,
