Hemangioma of other sites. D18.09 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM D18.09 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of D18.09 - other international versions of ICD-10 D18.09 may differ.
Cavernous venous malformation (cavernous hemangioma) of the Orbit ICD-9 228.0 Orbital cavernous venous malformation (cavernous hemangioma) is a benign, slowly progressive vascular neoplasm of endothelial-lined spaces surrounded by a fibrous capsule.
Orbital Cavernous Venous Malformation (Cavernous Hemangioma) ICD - 9 228.0 Orbital cavernous venous malformation (cavernous hemangioma) is a benign, noninfiltrative, slowly progressive vascular neoplasm composed of endothelial-lined spaces surrounded by a well-delineated fibrous capsule.
Cavernous venous malformations of the orbit , also known as cavernous hemangiomas, are the most common vascular lesion of the orbit in adults. It is important to note that according to newer nomenclature ( ISSVA classification of vascular anomalies) these lesions are merely known as slow flow venous malformations.
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.
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.
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, ...
Cavernous hemangioma appears as a well-circumscribed, rounded or oval soft tissue density mass when they are small and becomes deformed due to their soft nature when getting larger; they are somewhat hypoattenuating compared to the muscle which gradually and incompletely fills in following the administration of contrast 1,2.
Although cavernous hemangiomas can be located anywhere within the orbit (and for that matter pretty much anywhere in the body: see cavernous venous malformation article) over 80% are located within the intraconal compartment, most commonly in the lateral aspect 1-3.
Orbital cavernous venous malformation. Cavernous venous malformations of the orbit , also known as cavernous hemangiomas, are the most common vascular lesion of the orbit in adults.

Cavernous hemangiomas are the most common vascular lesions of the orbit in adults and account for 5-7% of all orbital tumors. However, debate exists about whether these lesions should actually be considered tumors 3. They usually present in middle age (30-50 years of age) and there appears to be a female predilection 2,3.
Having said that, it is probably helpful in reports to include the word 'cavernous' as this term is ubiquitous in the literature and most familiar to many clinicians. Cavernous malformations are found throughout the body. This article focuses on orbital cavernous hemangiomas.
As flow is slow, and vascular spaces large, areas of thrombosis are common 3,4. Unlike the name 'hemangioma' suggests, these lesions may not be tumors as there is no cellular proliferation 3, but rather gradually enlarging vascular malformations and as such some authors prefer the term cavernous malformation.
