Description

Thrombocytopenia is defined by a deficiency of platelets in the blood. In staging of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (CLL/SLL), thrombocytopenia is defined as Platelets (Plt) less than 100,000/μL.

Rationale

Thrombocytopenia is a prognostic factor required for staging of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (CLL/SLL) in AJCC 8th edition, Chapter 79 Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas.

Codes

0	Thrombocytopenia not present Platelets (Plt) = 100,000/µL Physician states Rai Stage 0-III
1	Thrombocytopenia present Platelets (Plt) < 100,000/µL
5	Not applicable: Primary site is not C421
6	Lab value unknown, physician states thrombocytopenia is present Physician states Rai Stage IV
7	Test ordered, results not in chart
9	Not documented in medical record Thrombocytopenia not assessed or unknown if assessed No Rai stage is documented in the record and there is no documentation of thrombocytopenia
