LOINC description : Describes surgical procedures used to treat the primary site of the reportable tumor.
This item records that portion of the first course of treatment given at the reporting
facility. This field is to be used for ROADS codes after the ROADS to FORDS conversion.
It is also to be used to code Surgery Primary Site at the reporting facility for all
tumors diagnosed before January 1, 2003. See Chapter V, Unresolved Issues, for a discussion
of differences in treatment coding among groups and over time. If central registries
wish to study the treatment given at particular hospitals, the hospital-level treatment
fields must be used. The summary treatment fields, conversely, combine information
across all hospitals that provide first course of treatment for the tumor. Hospital-specific
fields allow studies of detailed referral patterns and treatment by type of hospital.
Knowing what part of the treatment was given at a particular hospital also helps resolve
coding issues. .. NAACCR Data Standards and Data Dictionary Version 11;
