QC Corner Coding Tip: Is a Glomus Jugulare Tumor Reportable
Highlighting cancer registry coding topics, questions, and clarifications. Is a Glomus Jugulare Tumor Reportable?
Glomus jugulare is a rare, slow-growing neuroendocrine paraganglioma of the head and neck that develops within the jugular foramen and is confined to the jugular fossa in the temporal bone at the skull base.
The webcast provided an overview of brain and CNS tumor facts, reviewed reportability guidelines, discussed anatomy and the WHO grading system, reviewed coding-specific data items, reviewed findings from the National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) Data Quality Evaluation (DQE) audit, and discussed the use of STRs. FCDS QC staff reviewed cases from the NPCR DQE audit and recoded them if the text documentation did not support the abstract coding.
