Preauricular sinus and cyst. Q18.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM Q18.1 became effective on October 1, 2019. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Q18.1 - other international versions of ICD-10 Q18.1 may differ.
Also, known as a cleft sinus, a branchial cleft cyst is a lump that develops in the neck or just below the collarbone. Branchial cleft cysts form during development of the embryo. They occur when tissues in the neck and collarbone area (branchial cleft) fail to develop normally.
Branchial cleft cysts are small fluid-filled sacs that may look like lumps under your skin on the side of your neck. Healthcare providers may refer to branchial cleft cysts as pharyngeal cleft cysts or as a type of neck mass. These cysts are congenital, meaning they're present at birth.
Branchial cleft cysts (also called branchial cleft remnants or branchial cleft anomalies) are a congenital condition (condition present at birth) in which tissue develops incorrectly on one or both sides of the neck. Branchial cleft cysts sometimes have openings on the inside or outside of the skin called sinus tracts.
First branchial cleft cysts develop as a result of the incomplete fusion of the cleft between the first and second branchial arches (see branchial apparatus). There may be a sinus with drainage to the external ear or skin. They typically occur within or close to the parotid gland or external auditory canal.
Brachial Cleft Cyst or Sinus. Brachial cleft cyst is a persistent remnant of the formation of head and neck structures. These lesions present as a dimple – sometimes with drainage- or a lump in the neck. They tend to present in specific parts of the neck depending on the type.
The branchial arches, also known as pharyngeal or visceral arches, are embryonic structures seen in the development of vertebrates that serve as precursors for many structures of the face, neck. Peritonsillar Abscess , and head. These arches are composed of a central core of mesoderm.
Second branchial cleft cysts are benign developmental cysts thought to arise from congenital remnants of the second branchial arch. Other branchial anomalies exist but are much less common than second cleft anomalies which represent >95 % of all branchial cleft anomalies [1, 2].
Other branchial cleft malformations Q18. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Q18. 2 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A physical exam is usually enough to diagnose a branchial cleft cyst. Sometimes, MRI or CT scans can check the exact location of the cyst. Ultrasounds can also help figure out whether there is a fistula (unusual connection between two organs) connecting the throat or ear canal.
A branchial cleft cyst is a birth defect. It is caused when fluid fills a space, or sinus, left in the neck when a baby develops in the womb. After the baby is born, it appears as a lump in the neck or just below the jawbone.

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.
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.
Functional activity. 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]

Head and neck cancer is cancer that starts in the lip, oral cavity (mouth), nasal cavity (inside the nose), paranasal sinuses, pharynx, larynx or parotid glands.
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code C10.4 and a single ICD9 code, 146.8 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
