ICD-10-CM Code for Benign neoplasm of meninges, unspecified D32. 9.
Parafalcine meningioma is a common meningioma located in the cerebral longitudinal fissure, originating from the cerebral falx, with the third highest morbidity among all the meningiomas, accounting for approximately 11%–14% deaths, ranking only second to the cerebral convexity meningioma and parasagittal meningioma ( ...
Meningiomas are slow-growing tumors attached to the dura mater and are composed of neoplastic meningothelial cells. The tumors are most commonly located in convexities, and it is relatively rare to find such a growth in the parietal region such as the one presented in this case report.
G93. 89 - Other Specified Disorders of Brain [Internet]. In: ICD-10-CM.
Adjective. parafalcine (not comparable) Above or behind a falx.
The cause of meningiomas is not known. Exposure to radiation, especially in childhood, is the only known environmental risk factor for developing meningiomas. People who have a genetic condition, called neurofibromatosis type 2, are at increased risk for developing meningiomas.
The parietal lobe is one of the major lobes in the brain, roughly located at the upper back area in the skull. It processes sensory information it receives from the outside world, mainly relating to touch, taste, and temperature. Damage to the parietal lobe may lead to dysfunction in the senses.
A meningioma of the skull base is usually a noncancerous and slow-growing tumor that develops in the covering of the base of the brain. Meningiomas may not require treatment, unless they press on surrounding brain tissue, nerves, or blood vessels.
Gliomas, either low- (LGG; World Health Organisation (WHO) grades I-II) or high-grade (HGG; WHO grades III-IV), are malignant, intrinsic cerebral tumors that may cause tumor-infiltrative edema. Meningiomas are mostly benign, extrinsic cerebral tumors that do not infiltrate surrounding parenchyma.

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 ). Neoplasms. Approximate Synonyms. Benign neoplasm of meninges.
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.
The ICD code D32 is used to code Meningioma. Meningiomas are a diverse set of tumors arising from the meninges, the membranous layers surrounding the central nervous system. They arise from the arachnoid "cap" cells of the arachnoid villi in the meninges. These tumors usually are benign in nature; however, a small percentage are malignant.
These tumors usually are benign in nature; however, a small percentage are malignant. Many meningiomas produce no symptoms throughout a person's life, and if discovered, require no treatment other than periodic observation. Typically, symptomatic meningiomas are treated with either radiosurgery or conventional surgery.
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.
