Site: Cervix

Implement from diagnosis date:

Agreed by: C&CG

Date agreed by: 08/02/2008

Confirmed by RSG: 17/04/2008

It is impossible to assign a specific site code within the cervix based on morphology type alone, therefore, unless the pathologist specifically states the area where the tumour arises, coders must code to Cervix NOS C53.9 or D06.9.
