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.
Secondary malignant neoplasm of bilateral breasts. Clinical Information. The spread of cancer to the breast. This may be from a primary breast cancer on the opposite side, or from a cancer at a distant site.
secondary carcinoid tumors ( C7B.-) secondary neuroendocrine tumors ( C7B.-) The spread of cancer to the breast.
The Table of Neoplasms should be used to identify the correct topography code. In a few cases, such as for malignant melanoma and certain neuroendocrine tumors, the morphology (histologic type) is included in the category and codes. Primary malignant neoplasms overlapping site boundaries.
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.

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.
Thyroid cancer metastatic to bone. Clinical Information. Cancer that has spread from the original (primary) tumor to the bone. The spread of a malignant neoplasm from a primary site to the skeletal system. The majority of metastatic neoplasms to the bone are carcinomas.
secondary carcinoid tumors ( C 7B.-) secondary neuroendocrine tumors ( C7B.-) Cancer that has spread from the original (primary) tumor to the bone.
The Table of Neoplasms should be used to identify the correct topography code. In a few cases, such as for malignant melanoma and certain neuroendocrine tumors, the morphology (histologic type) is included in the category and codes. Primary malignant neoplasms overlapping site boundaries.
A malignant neoplasm in which there is infiltration of the skin overlying the breast by neoplastic large cells with abundant pale cytoplasm and large nuclei with prominent nucleoli (paget cells). It is almost always associated with an intraductal or invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast.
An intraductal carcinoma of the breast extending to involve the nipple and areola, characterized clinically by eczema-like inflammatory skin changes and histologically by infiltration of the dermis by malignant cells (paget's cells). (Dorland, 27th ed) Breast cancer affects one in eight women during their lives.
In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
Breast self-exam and mammography can help find breast cancer early when it is most treatable. Treatment may consist of radiation, lumpectomy, mastectomy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy.men can have breast cancer, too, but the number of cases is small. nih: national cancer institute.
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. For multiple neoplasms of the same site that are not contiguous such as tumors in different quadrants of the same breast, codes for each site should be assigned.
When a primary malignancy has been previously excised or eradicated from its site and there is no further treatment directed to that site and there is no evidence of any existing primary malignancy at that site, a code from category Z85, Personal history of malignant neoplasm, should be used to indicate the former site of the malignancy. Any mention of extension, invasion, or metastasis to another site is coded as a secondary malignant neoplasm to that site. The secondary site may be the principal or first-listed with the Z85 code used as a secondary code.
Chapter 2 of the ICD-10-CM contains the codes for most benign and all malignant neoplasms. Certain benign neoplasms , such as prostatic adenomas, may be found in the specific body system chapters. To properly code a neoplasm, it is necessary to determine from the record if the neoplasm is benign, in-situ, malignant, or of uncertain histologic behavior. If malignant, any secondary ( metastatic) sites should also be determined.
Code C80.0, Disseminated malignant neoplasm, unspecified, is for use only in those cases where the patient has advanced metastatic disease and no known primary or secondary sites are specified. It should not be used in place of assigning codes for the primary site and all known secondary sites.
When a pregnant woman has a malignant neoplasm, a code from subcategory O9A.1 -, malignant neoplasm complicating pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium, should be sequenced first, followed by the appropriate code from Chapter 2 to indicate the type of neoplasm. Encounter for complication associated with a neoplasm.
There are also codes Z85.6, Personal history of leukemia, and Z85.79, Personal history of other malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissues. If the documentation is unclear as to whether the leukemia has achieved remission, the provider should be queried.
When an encounter is for a pathological fracture due to a neoplasm, and the focus of treatment is the fracture, a code from subcategory M84.5, Pathological fracture in neoplastic disease, should be sequenced first, followed by the code for the neoplasm.
If the documentation states the cancer is a metastatic cancer, but does not state the site of the metastasis, the coder will assign a code for the primary cancer, followed by code C79.9 secondary malignant neoplasm of unspecified site.
If the site of the primary cancer is not documented, the coder will assign a code for the metastasis first, followed by C80.1 malignant (primary) neoplasm, unspecified. For example, if the patient was being treated for metastatic bone cancer, but the primary malignancy site is not documented, assign C79.51, C80.1.
When coding malignant neoplasms, there are several coding guidelines we must follow:#N#To properly code a malign ant neoplasm, the coder must first determine from the documentation if the neoplasm is a primary malignancy or a metastatic (secondary) malignancy stemming from a primary cancer.
When a current cancer is no longer receiving treatment of any kind, it is coded as a history code. For instance, the patient had breast cancer (C50.xx) and underwent a mastectomy, followed by chemoradiation. The provider documents that the patient has no evidence of disease (NED).
For instance, a patient who has primary breast cancer (C50.xx) who is now seen for metastatic bone cancer will have a code for the secondary bone cancer (C79.51) sequenced before a code for the primary breast cancer (C50.xx). When a current cancer is no longer receiving treatment of any kind, it is coded as a history code.
