BIOPSY REFERRAL OUTCOME

A code used to reference an outcome of a REFERRAL REQUEST. For cervical histology, biopsies are taken after a colposcopy has been performed.

For cervical histology for KC61 purposes, the classification is:

a.Cervical Cancer (including micro-invasive)
b.Adenocarcinoma in situ / CGIN
c.CIN3
d.CIN2
e.CIN1
f.HPV only
g.No CIN/No HPV
h.Inadequate biopsy
i.Colposcopy - Nothing Abnormal Detected (NAD)/no biopsy taken
j.Results not known by laboratory
k.Non cervical cancers detected

For cervical histology for KC65 purposes, the classification is:

a.Cancer (including micro-invasive)
b.Adenocarcinoma in situ
c.CIN3
d.CIN2
e.CIN1
f.HPV/cervicitus only
g.No CIN/No HPV (normal)
h.Inadequate/unsatisfactory biopsy
i.Result not known by clinic

For breast cancer screening for KC62 purposes, the classification is:

a.Benign or negative
b.Inconclusive
c.Positive; i.e. cancer detected
 i.non-invasive or possibly micro-invasive
  a.low (DCIS only detected)
  b.intermediate (DCIS only detected)
  c.high (DCIS only detected)
  d.grade not known (DCIS only detected)
 ii.definitely micro-invasive
  a.low (DCIS only detected)
  b.intermediate (DCIS only detected)
  c.high (DCIS only detected)
  d.grade not known (DCIS only detected)
 iii.invasive size not known
  a.Grade I
  b.Grade II
  c.Grade III
  d.grade not known
 iv.invasive size known
  a.Grade I
  b.Grade II
  c.Grade III
  d.grade not known
  v.invasive status not known
d.Biopsy not done or result not yet know
