Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are cancers that start in different places in the body, including the large bowel (colon) and back passage (rectum). Large bowel and rectal NETs are rare and need different treatments to other more common types of bowel (colorectal) cancer.
ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 209 : Neuroendocrine tumors.
Overview. Carcinoid tumors are a type of slow-growing cancer that can arise in several places throughout your body. Carcinoid tumors, which are one subset of tumors called neuroendocrine tumors, usually begin in the digestive tract (stomach, appendix, small intestine, colon, rectum) or in the lungs.
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.

Poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs) are rare tumors that can arise anywhere along the gastrointestinal tract. They often present in advanced stage and portend a poor prognosis when compared to adenocarcinomas of the same stage.
While each type of tumor can spread (metastasize) from the pancreas to other organs, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors usually spread over a period of years. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma, on the other hand, typically spreads over a period of months.
Insulinoma. Insulinomas are the most common functioning pancreatic endocrine tumors.
Carcinoid tumor is a type of neuroendocrine tumor that grows from neuroendocrine cells. Neuroendocrine cells receive and send messages through hormones to help the body function. Neuroendocrine cells are found in organs throughout the body. Carcinoid tumors often grow very slowly.
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, ...

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, ...
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.
Neuroendocrine tumors are a rare type of tumor composed of cells that produce and secrete regulatory hormones.
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.
