The ICD code C482 is used to code Primary peritoneal carcinoma Primary peritoneal cancer or carcinoma is also known as serous surface papillary carcinoma, primary peritoneal carcinoma, extra-ovarian serous carcinoma, primary serous papillary carcinoma, psammomacarcinoma. It was historically classified under "carcinoma of unknown primary" (CUP).

Cancer of the tissue that lines the abdominal wall and covers organs in the abdomen. ICD-10-CM C48.2 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group (s) (MS-DRG v38.0): 374 Digestive malignancy with mcc 375 Digestive malignancy with cc
Secondary malignant neoplasm of retroperitoneum and peritoneum. C78.6 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 C78.6 became effective on October 1, 2019.
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.
ICD-10 code: C78. 6 Secondary malignant neoplasm of retroperitoneum and peritoneum.
Cancer that has spread to the lining surfaces of the peritoneal (abdominal) cavity from ovarian cancer, primary colorectal cancer, appendiceal cancer, or mesothelioma and pseudomyxoma peritonei—known as peritoneal carcinomatosis—are cancers that are frequently referred to as peritoneal cancers.
Secondary peritoneal cancers usually start in other organs in the abdomen and spread to the peritoneum. These cancers can be gynecologic, genitourinary or gastrointestinal (stomach, small bowel, colorectal, appendix) in origin. Secondary peritoneal cancers can be diagnosed in both men and women.
The area in the back of the abdomen behind the peritoneum (the tissue that lines the abdominal wall and covers most of the organs in the abdomen). The organs in the retroperitoneum include the adrenal glands, aorta, kidneys, esophagus, ureters, pancreas, rectum, and parts of the stomach and colon.
Peritoneal carcinomatosis most often develops when other abdominal tumors spread to the peritoneum, leading to multiple new tumors on the surface of this membrane. If you get peritoneal carcinomatosis, it generally means that your abdominal cancer is in an advanced stage.
Made of epithelial cells, this structure is called the peritoneum. It produces a fluid that helps organs move smoothly inside the abdomen. Peritoneal cancer is not the same as intestinal or stomach cancer. Nor is it to be confused with cancers that spread (metastasize) to the peritoneum.
In stage 4, cancer has spread to other organs and has two substages: 4A: Cancer cells are found in the fluid that builds up around the lungs. 4B: The cancer has spread to organs and tissues outside the abdomen, such as the liver, lungs, or lymph nodes in the groin.
Peritoneal mesothelioma is the second-most common form of mesothelioma cancer, accounting for about 15 – 20% of all diagnoses. Each year, less than 1,000 people are diagnosed with the disease in the United States.
The secondary retroperitoneal organs, which initially develop intraperitoneal and become retroperitoneal structures throughout development, include the pancreas, the ascending and descending colon, and the distal part of the duodenum.
In stage IIIC, cancer has spread to the peritoneum outside the pelvis, such as the omentum, and the cancer in the peritoneum is larger than 2 centimeters. Cancer may have spread to lymph nodes behind the peritoneum or to the surface of the liver or spleen.
Stage III: The cancer involves 1 or both of the ovaries or fallopian tubes, or it is peritoneal cancer. It has spread to the peritoneum outside the pelvis and/or to lymph nodes in the retroperitoneum (lymph nodes along the major blood vessels, such as the aorta) behind the abdomen.
Primary malignant neoplasm of the peritoneum. Clinical Information. A primary or metastatic malignant neoplasm involving the peritoneum. Representative examples include carcinoma and malignant mesothelioma. Cancer of the tissue that lines the abdominal wall and covers organs in the abdomen.
mesothelioma ( C45.-) A primary or metastatic malignant neoplasm involving the peritoneum.
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, ...
