The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.

R19.07 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM R19.07 became effective on October 1, 2020.
There are four different ICD-10 diagnosis codes for the four conditions listed above. For example, a liver lesion is coded as K76. 9; a liver mass is coded as R16. 0, a liver tumor is coded as D49.

Hepatic cysts are fluid-filled cavities in the liver generally asymptomatic and found incidentally on imaging studies. They can sometimes be associated with serious complications such as infection, hemorrhage, rupture, or compression of the biliary tree.
Simple cysts are mainly congenital cysts, but also occur in polycystic liver disease. Complex cysts include mucinous neoplasms, echinococcal cysts, hemorrhagic cysts, cystic hepatocellular carcinoma and other rare lesions.
Polycystic liver disease (PLD or PCLD) is a rare condition that causes cysts -- fluid-filled sacs -- to grow throughout the liver. A normal liver has a smooth, uniform appearance. A polycystic liver can look like a cluster of very large grapes. Cysts also can grow independently in different parts of the liver.
Symptoms of liver cysts can include:distended or protruding stomach.feelings of abdominal fullness or bloating.abdominal pain, particularly in the upper right quadrant.heartburn.nausea and vomiting.shoulder pain.
Benign liver cysts, sometimes called simple cysts, are the most common form of liver cyst.
The cause of most liver cysts is unknown. Liver cysts can be present at birth or can develop at a later time. They usually grow slowly and are not detected until adulthood. Some cysts are caused by a parasite, echinococcus that is found in sheep in different parts of the world.
If a cyst is less than 1 cm in diameter, details of septation or other irregularities cannot be seen on US imaging. When cysts are that small, they are usually of no clinical importance, and we follow them expectantly.
Cystic lesions of the liver can be broadly classified as infectious and noninfectious lesions. The main parasitic lesion of the liver is the hydatid cyst, and the non-parasitic lesions are again divided into benign, pre-malignant and malignant and traumatic lesions (Fig.
“Simple liver cysts” are always benign–aka harmless. The only individuals who would need treatment for a cyst in their liver are those who experience symptoms. Cystic tumors, on the other hand, are generally growths that turn malignant over a span of several years. They are a mixture of solid and liquid portions.
CT scans show the location, size, and shape of the tumor or cyst. Because CT scans provide clear and accurate information, your medical practitioner may use a scan to guide a needle biopsy.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
All neoplasms are classified in this chapter, whether they are functionally active or not. An additional code from Chapter 4 may be used, to identify functional activity associated with any neoplasm. Morphology [Histology] Chapter 2 classifies neoplasms primarily by site (topography), with broad groupings for behavior, malignant, in situ, benign, ...
