Description
(TP53_PREVALENCE) |
Site of the tumor defined by organ or group of organs, according to the ICD-O nomenclature.
Examples: "colon", "brain", "bronchus and lung".
Note that some tumors are annoted "Head&Neck,NOS" or "Colorectum,NOS"
because no detail is given in the original publication
(NOS = not otherwise specified).
For the online search tool, a short name is used in place of the ICD-O
name (example: "Lung" for "bronchus and lung").
See a numerical
list of topographies, and associated short descriptions and codes.
For metastasis, the topography corresponds to the primary site of the
tumor and the site of metastasis is indicated in the |Metastasis_localization field
|
