Chapter II

Malignant neoplasm of oesophagus - C15


Note: Two alternative subclassifications are given:
  • 0-.2 by anatomical description
  • 3-.5 by thirds
This departure from the principle that categories should be mutually exclusive is deliberate, since both forms of terminology are in use but the resulting anatomical divisions are not analogous.

C15.0 Cervical part of oesophagus
C15.1 Thoracic part of oesophagus
C15.2 Abdominal part of oesophagus
C15.3 Upper third of oesophagus
C15.4 Middle third of oesophagus
C15.5 Lower third of oesophagus
C15.8 Overlapping lesion of oesophagus
[See note 5 at the beginning of this chapter]
C15.9 Oesophagus, unspecified
