Melanocytic nevi, unspecifiedICD-10 code D22. 9 for Melanocytic nevi, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Neoplasms .
Atypical nevi, also known as dysplastic nevi, are benign acquired melanocytic neoplasms. Atypical nevi share some of the clinical features of melanoma, such as asymmetry, irregular borders, multiple colors, and diameter >5 mm (picture 1A). They occur sporadically or in a familial setting.

ICD20 Dysplastic Nevi I would use D48. 5 for the dx of dysplastic nevi. Also, if the patient also has a hx of dysplastic nevi, don't forget to include Z86.
A abnormal, congenital formation or mark on the skin or neighboring mucosa that does not show neoplastic growth. [
(dis-PLAS-tik NEE-vus) A specific type of nevus (mole) that looks different from a common mole. Dysplastic nevi are mostly flat and often larger than common moles and have borders that are irregular. A dysplastic nevus can contain different colors, which can range from pink to dark brown.
Listen to pronunciation. (KOM-pownd NEE-vus) A type of mole formed by groups of nevus cells found in the epidermis and dermis (the two main layers of tissue that make up the skin).
An acral nevus is a cutaneous condition of the palms, soles, fingers, or toes (peripheral body parts), characterized by a skin lesion that is usually macular or only slightly elevated, and may display a uniform brown or dark brown color, often with linear striations.
Intradermal melanocytic nevi are common, benign, pigmented skin tumors formed by proliferation of dermal melanocytes. A number of notable, uncommon changes may be observed in intradermal melanocytic nevi. In particular, their association with lymphatic invasion is an extremely rare phenomenon.
Nevus (or naevus, plural nevi or naevi, from nævus, Latin for "birthmark") is the medical term for sharply-circumscribed [1] and chronic lesions of the skin. These lesions are commonly named birthmarks and moles. Nevi are benign by definition.
Nevi are benign by definition. Using the term nevus and nevi loosely, most physicians and dermatologists are actually referring to a variant of nevus called the "Melanocytic nevus", which are composed of melanocytes.
A mole is a cluster of melanocytes and surrounding supportive tissue that usually appears as a tan, brown, or flesh-colored spot on the skin. The plural of nevus is nevi (nee-vye).
The plural of nevus is nevi (nee-vye). A benign (not cancer) growth on the skin that is formed by a cluster of melanocytes (cells that make a substance called melanin, which gives color to skin and eyes). A mole is usually dark and may be raised from the skin.
A benign growth on the skin (usually tan, brown, or flesh-colored) that contain s a cluster of melanocytes and surrounding supportive tissue. A neoplasm composed of melanocytes that usually appears as a dark spot on the skin. A nevus characterised by the presence of excessive pigment. A nevus containing melanin.
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.
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.
Functional activity. 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, ...

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, ...
