Some of the new terms included in ICD-O-3 are real tongue-twisters:
Trichilemmocarcinoma
Angiomyofibroblastoma
Adenomyoepithelioma
Ectomesenchymoma
Cystadenocarcinofibroma
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis |
 |
Tricilemmocarcinoma
is in the basal cell series, 8102/3, and is reportable.
Angiomyofibroblastoma
is a benign tumor in the fibroma series.
Adenomyoepithelioma
is a benign tumor in the complex mixed and stromal neoplasms
Ectomesenchymoma is
a malignancy in the myomatous tumor series.
Cystadenocarcinofibroma
is part of three new codes (8313/3 = clear cell cystadenocarcinofibroma
; 9014/3 = serous cystadenocarcinofibroma; and 9015 = mucinous
cystadenocarcinofibroma) and is reportable.
And the winner (at 11 syllables!) is a borderline condition,
lymphangioleiomyomatosis.
