Data element attributes | |
Collection and usage attributes | |
Guide for use: | Synchronous primary tumours are detected simultaneously, either preoperatively or in the resected specimen. Metachronous primary tumours are detected after a time interval between detection of the first lesion and detection of a subsequent primary lesion. |
---|---|
Collection methods: | This information should be sought from the patient's pathology report and medical record. |
Comments: | Patients with multiple primary tumours may have a worse prognosis or more extensive treatment than patients with a single tumour. In addition, the management and prognosis when multiple primary tumours are present may vary depending on whether the tumours are synchronous or metachronous. |
