Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), defined as epithelial tumors with predominant neuroendocrine differentiation, are among the most frequent types of small bowel neoplasm. They represent a rare, slow-growing neoplasm with some characteristics common to all forms and others attributable to the organ of origin.
Overview. Neuroendocrine tumors are cancers that begin in specialized cells called neuroendocrine cells. Neuroendocrine cells have traits similar to those of nerve cells and hormone-producing cells. Neuroendocrine tumors are rare and can occur anywhere in the body.
Ewing's Sarcoma – Peripheral Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumors [PNET] – Adult & Child (ICD-10: C40-C41)
Report the primary site of cancer, if known, for patients who have been diagnosed with a cancer. In ICD-10-AM (3rd edition), primary site is identified using a single 4 digit code Cxx.
Ileal neuroendocrine tumor is a rare, primary, malignant, epithelial neoplasm of the small intestine arising from enterochromaffin cells in the ileum (usually the terminal ileum).
Neuroendocrine tumors start in the pancreas, while carcinoid tumors commonly start in the lungs, small intestine, appendix, or rectum. Symptoms of neuroendocrine tumors include fatigue, loss of appetite, and unexplained weight loss.
Small bowel neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are rare bowel tumours. They start in the neuroendocrine cells of the small bowel. They often develop slowly and don't always have specific symptoms.
Neuroendocrine tumors may be functional or nonfunctional, depending on their hormone secretion. Functional NETs produce excess hormones, while nonfunctional tumors don't produce hormones or enough of them to cause noticeable symptoms.

Insulinoma. Insulinomas are the most common functioning pancreatic endocrine tumors.
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, ...
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 type 2 excludes note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition it is excluded from but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When a type 2 excludes note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code ( D3A) and the excluded code together. benign pancreatic islet cell tumors (.
The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM D3A became effective on October 1, 2020.

A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as C17.2. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

A tumor that forms from cells that release hormones in response to a signal from the nervous system. Some examples of neuroendocrine tumors are carcinoid tumors, islet cell tumors, medullary thyroid carcinomas, pheochromocytomas, and neuroendocrine carcinomas of the skin (merkel cell cancer).
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.
Common properties across most neuroendocrine tumors include ectopic hormone production (often via apud cells), the presence of tumor-associated antigens, and isozyme composition. Reimbursement claims with a date of service on or after October 1, 2015 require the use of ICD-10-CM codes.
Malignant neoplasms of ectopic tissue are to be coded to the site mentioned, e.g., ectopic pancreatic malignant neoplasms are coded to pancreas, unspecified ( C25.9 ). A benign or malignant neoplasm composed of cells of neuroendocrine origin. Representative examples include paraganglioma, carcinoid tumor, and neuroendocrine carcinoma.

C7B.1. If a neuroendocrine tumor (NET) spreads, it can spread to the below sites and metastasis code should be from C7B series. Carcinoid malignancies aren't going to metastasize as another type of carcinoma. tissues or structures near the organ where the cancer started, such as the peritoneum, the pleura or fat tissue.
Neuroendocrine tumors are a rare type of tumor composed of cells that produce and secrete regulatory hormones.
Carcinoid tumors are one subset of tumors called neuroendocrine tumors, usually begin in the digestive tract (stomach, appendix, small intestine, colon, rectum) or in the lungs. When the documentation states only carcinoid tumor and does not provide enough information (site) to assign a more specific code.
