French term

Contingent in situ

French to English Medical Medical (general) Cancer
Hello everyone,
I'm really struggling to find the meaning of this phrase. Unfortunately, there isn't much context. This is the report of the results of a biopsy of breast cancer. The cancer type is Invasive carcinoma of no special type. The phrase "contingent in situ: non" appears in the microscopy section of the report, under "emboles tumoraux: non".
I've found many results in French on the web but none of them have the definition of this phrase and none of them offer a bilingual version :-(
Thank you in advance!

Sorry "in situ" without the hyphen
Peer comment(s):

agree philgoddard : Your first reference doesn't work for me. And it should have a hyphen.

in situ segment/portion

if it is a biopsy report, here contingent would mean segment instead of component, as segment can be used to designate part of the human body or part of an organ whereas component would be more likely used when referring to computer parts or any other mechanical part.
