Mets at DX-BBDLLO, HemeRetic (SEER)

[pete@kcr.uky.edu]

The edit description for ‘Mets at DX-BBDLLO, HemeRetic (SEER)’ in the NAACCR 16B metafile states that any valid Mets at Dx code can be used for Histologic Type ICD-O-3 9811-9818, 9837 with Primary Site C420, C421, C424. When I run this edit it does not allow 8 for these sites. I looked at the edit logic and it appears that the Heme4 check allows 8 but these sites are checked again in the final else clause which does not allow 8. Is this correct?

I also saw this and reported to Jim in an email on Monday. I took this edit out of the V16B edit set update I was testing. I had run edits on about 4500 records in a dozen data files, and it only showed up in two of them.

A registrar in the field just reported this as well using their state 16B metafile. I tested it by using just the NAACCR16B metafile as well & received the same edit (see below).
