For prostate, there is no subdiagnosis under carcinoma for “adenocarcinoma”, the most common type of cancer found in this organ.
For some reason “adenosquamous carcinoma” is its own diagnosis, and should be relegated to a modifier of “carcinoma”
For ovary, there are no disease modifiers under the diagnosis of “carcinoma” for serous and endometriod carcinomas, the most common form of cancers of the ovary.
For some reason, transitional cell carcinoma is its own diagnosis, and should be relegated to a modifier of “carcinoma”.
