Colorectal Cancer Resection Reporting Protocol

Below is a section of the International Collaboration on Cancer Reporting (ICCR) Colorectal Cancer Resection reporting protocol. This page exemplifies some of the bindings for this data set, namely the data elements for 'histological tumor type' and 'lymph node status'. Similar binding exists for each question/answer set within the protocol.  View an excerpt from the ICCR Colorectal Cancer Histopathology Reporting Protocol:


Binding of Histological Tumor Type

The diagram below shows the question and options for the 'histological tumor type' data element. The Observable entity to be measured/assessed is "Histological tumour type", which is represented by the  SNOMED CT concept 1284862009 |Histologic type of primary malignant neoplasm of cecum and/or colon and/or rectum (observable entity)|   and represents the "question" being answered.  The possible "answers" or observations are listed in the table below with associated SNOMED CT concept bindings for each histology option.  

Data ItemType Cardinality DisplayBinding
HISTOLOGICAL TUMOR TYPEQuestion1..1Histological tumor type
Response options (Group)0..1No evidence of residual tumour

Adenocarcinoma not otherwise specified (NOS)
Mucinous adenocacinoma
Signet-ring cell adenocarcinoma
Medullary carcinoma
Serrated adenocarcinoma
Micropapillary adenocarcinoma
adenoma-like adenocarcinoma
Neuroendocrine carcinoma, small cell type
Neuroendocrine carcinoma, large cell type
Mixed neuroendocrine-non-neuroendocrine neoplasm (MiNEN)

Binding of Lymph Node Status

The diagram below shows the question and options for the 'lymph node status' data element. The Observable entity to be measured/assessed is "Lymph node status", which is represented by the  SNOMED CT concept 1268302004 |Presence of metastatic neoplasm in lymph node in excised tissue specimen (observable entity)| and represents the "question" being answered.  The possible "answers" or observations are listed in the table below with associated SNOMED CT concept bindings for each option.  


Data ItemType Cardinality DisplayBinding
LYMPH NODE STATUSQuestion1..1Lymph node status
Response options (Group)0..1Cannot be assessed
0..1No nodes submitted or found

Question1..1Number of lymph nodes examined

444025001 |Number of lymph nodes examined by microscopy in excised specimen (observable entity)|

Response value1..1N/A
Question1..1Number of involved lymph nodes examined
