This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 158.9 was previously used, C48.2 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
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, ...
Cancer. Also called: Carcinoma, Malignancy, Neoplasms, Tumor. Cancer begins in your cells, which are the building blocks of your body. Normally, your body forms new cells as you need them, replacing old cells that die. Sometimes this process goes wrong.
Cancer begins in your cells, which are the building blocks of your body. Normally, your body forms new cells as you need them, replacing old cells that die. Sometimes this process goes wrong. New cells grow even when you don't need them, and old cells don't die when they should. These extra cells can form a mass called a tumor. Tumors can be benign or malignant. Benign tumors aren't cancer while malignant ones are. Cells from malignant tumors can invade nearby tissues. They can also break away and spread to other parts of the body.

There are more than 100 different types of cancer. Most cancers are named for where they start. For example, lung cancer starts in the lung, and breast cancer starts in the breast. The spread of cancer from one part of the body to another is called metastasis.

Physical findings: The signs and symptoms of primary peritoneal cancer may include: •. Pain, swelling, or a feeling of pressure in the abdomen or pelvis; •. Vaginal bleeding that is heavy or irregular, especially after menopause; •. Vaginal discharge that is clear, white, or colored with blood; •.
The prognosis for individuals with primary peritoneal cancer is often poor. Median life expectancy is 1-2 years, with a range of 4 months to >5 years, the 5-year survival rate is about 26%.
Primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) is cancer that originates in the peritoneum, which is a moist sheet of tissue that lines the abdominal cavity and the surface of the abdominal organs. The peritoneum protects the organs and allows them to move smoothly within the abdomen.
The peritoneum protects the organs and allows them to move smoothly within the abdomen. The cells of the peritoneum develop from the same type of cells, which form the ovaries, so PPC shares characteristics with ovarian cancer, and though rare PPC can occur in men.
