This neoplasm is not reportable EXCEPT for Brain and CNS Sites.

Name

Polymorphic post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder

ICD-O-3 Morphology

9971/1: Polymorphic Post Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder (PTLD)
Effective 2021 - 2024

Reportability

This neoplasm is not reportable EXCEPT for Brain and CNS Sites

Primary Site(s)

See Abstractor Notes
This neoplasm is reportable for primary sites C700-C729, C751-C753 only.

Abstractor Notes

(This code is effective for cases diagnosed 2021-2024 for CNS sites only.) For cases diagnosed 2010-2021 or 2025+, see 9971/3. This code is not reportable prior to 2010.

For 2021-2024, Polymorphic PTLD (PTLD by itself, no accompanying lymphoma, plasmacytoma, multiple myeloma) is coded as 9971/1 and is only reportable for CNS sites (C700-C729, C751-C753)

Per the IARC/WHO Committee for ICD-O and included in the WHO Tumors of Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues, Revised 4th Ed, Volume 2, PTLD by itself is a /1 starting in ICD-O-3.2. For the US and Canada, 9971/1 will be reportable for years 2021-2024 for CNS sites only.

Starting 1/1/25, PTLD (by itself [polymorphic]), will be reportable for any site and is to be coded as 9971/3.

Please note that ICD-O-3.2 has this as 9971/1; however, the US will be collecting this as 9971/3 starting 1/1/25.

Definition

Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) are lymphoid or plasmacytic proliferations that develop as a consequence of immunosuppression in a recipient of a solid organ, bone marrow, or stem cell allograft. The early lesions are defined as lymphoid proliferations in an allograft recipient, characterized by architectual preservation of the involved tissue, with preservation of the nodular sinuses or tonsillar crypts, and residual or sometimes floridly reactive follicles in some cases.
