The carcinomatous part of the lesion is most commonly an infiltrating duct carcinoma. Ductular carcinoma (8521): A malignancy that is infrequently found in the breast and may be found with greater frequency in other organs such as pancreas or prostate. Code 8521 is seldom, if ever, applied to the breast.
Infiltrative protocol breast cancer (carcinoma) is considered one of the most common malignant breast tumors. As it becomes clear from the title, the development of the disease begins in the inner surface of the milk ducts.
Invasive ductal carcinoma, also known as infiltrating ductal carcinoma or IDC, is the most common form of breast cancer, accounting for 80% of all breast cancer diagnoses.
(IN-fil-TRAY-ting brest KAN-ser) Cancer that has spread from where it began in the breast to surrounding normal tissue.

What's the difference between invasive ductal carcinoma and ductal carcinoma in situ? Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) means that the cancer cells are still contained in your milk ducts. Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) means that the cancer has begun to spread to (or invade) your surrounding breast tissue.
Infiltrative renal malignancies are a subset of renal masses that are morphologically characterized by a poorly defined interface with the renal parenchyma. Infiltrative renal malignancies are less common but more aggressive than more typical renal malignancies and carry an overall worse prognosis.

ICD-10 code C50. 912 for Malignant neoplasm of unspecified site of left female breast is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Malignant neoplasms .
A malignant neoplasm (NEE-oh-plaz-um) is another term for a cancerous tumor. The term “neoplasm” refers to an abnormal growth of tissue. The term “malignant” means the tumor is cancerous and is likely to spread (metastasize) beyond its point of origin.
There are 5 major stages of breast cancer: stage 0 (zero), which is non-invasive ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), and stages I through IV (1 through 4), which are used for invasive breast cancer.
Each division takes about 1 to 2 months, so a detectable tumor has likely been growing in the body for 2 to 5 years. Generally speaking, the more cells divide, the bigger the tumor grows.
Causes and Risk Factors Certain genetic mutations, known as breast cancer genes BRCA1 and BRCA2, are associated with an increased risk of IDC. Other risk factors include: Age. A history of benign breast disease.
Life expectancy and survival rates for stage 3 breast cancer are improving all the time. The current 5-year survival rates for stage 3 breast cancer are 86% for females and 83% for males. However, many factors can influence a person's life expectancy after a breast cancer diagnosis.
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. Malignant neoplasm of ectopic tissue. Malignant neoplasms of ectopic tissue are to be coded to the site mentioned, e.g., ectopic pancreatic malignant neoplasms are coded to pancreas, ...

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 term "infiltrative nonspecific breast cancer" includes those varieties of cancer that can be found in extremely rare cases. For such neoplasms, there are also differences in the treatment and prognosis of the disease. Non-specific types of cancer include colloid carcinoma, tumors with a low degree of differentiation, and squamous cell metaplasia.
Osteo-infiltrative breast cancer (inflammatory cancer) is observed in about 5% of cases of all known forms of breast cancers. The disease is characterized by the distribution of malignant tissues in the chest in the form of infiltration and puffiness of the skin. Since an obvious node or densification can not be palpable, then this pathology is difficult to diagnose - as a rule, at the initial stages, a cancer tumor is taken for a secondary swelling of the skin due to the inflammatory process. The oedematous infiltrative form of cancer is characterized by relatively slow growth and latent flow.
Metastases with infiltrative cancer have their own peculiarity: they can latently exist for a fairly long period of time without revealing themselves, beginning to grow and multiply sometimes ten years after the complete removal of the initial malignant formation .
As it becomes clear from the title, the development of the disease begins in the inner surface of the milk ducts. In this case, the tumor most often finds its spread to other tissues and skin of the affected gland, and also gives metastases to the nearest lymph nodes. Among other things, degenerated cells often involve the fat layer of the armpit (through lymph and blood flow) into the process.
In addition, monthly self-examination of the breast is important, which is carried out by the woman herself on about 6-10 days of the monthly cycle.
Unfortunately, to date, the exact pathogenesis of the onset of infiltrative cancer has not been studied. There are some versions according to which the development of cancer can contribute to the following factors:
Chemotherapy is one of the options for systemic breast therapy and is used in the vast majority of cases. Medicines for the treatment of cancer are prescribed without fail in the following cases:
When tumor is found in one lobe, both lobes or in prostatic apex by needle biopsy but is not palpable or visible by imaging, use code 15. C. CODES 20 to 24 are used only for clinically/radiographically apparent tumor, i.e., that which is palpable or visible by imaging.
Duct carcinoma, NOS (8500): The largest group of breast cancers. Duct carcinoma, NOS is not a specific histologic type because it lacks specific features that can be used to better classify the tumor. See Table 1 and Table 2 for intraductal and duct types.
Invasive: A tumor that penetrates beyond the ductal basement membrane into the adjacent stroma of the breast parenchyma.
Carcinoma with osteoclast-like giant cells (8035): This is a specific type of duct carcinoma. The carcinomatous part of the lesion is most commonly an infiltrating duct carcinoma.
The position of the tumor in the breast may be described as the positions on a clock
1. Code the primary site to C508 when there is a single tumor that overlaps two or more subsites, and the subsite in which the tumor originated is unknown 2. Code the primary site to C508 when there is a single tumor located at the 12, 3, 6, or 9 o’clock position on the breast . 3.
Sarcoma of breast: Primary sarcomas of the breast are rare accounting for less than 0.1% of all malignant tumors of the breast. Diagnoses may include fibrosarcoma, angiosarcoma, pleomorphic sarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, myxofibrosarcoma, hemangio- pericytoma, and osteosarcoma (extra-osseous osteosarcoma of breast).
So I say, yes , a breast specimen can have more than one type of cancer present at the same time. If you think about how dense the mammary tissue is with the ducts, glands and fat, it makes sense actually that it could have small pockets of cancer in different stages spread throughout it. The excludes notes are letting us know NOT to code for both at the same time (on the same breast). The invasive malignant carcinoma takes precedence and is the one to code for. By location/laterality of course.
due to the exclude 1 note you do not code the C50 code with the D05 code so code only the invasive. you could code both and use the exclude 1 exception if documentation were to indicate invasive in one breast and in-situ in the other.
