ICD-10 code D24. 9 for Benign neoplasm of unspecified breast is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Neoplasms .
Fibroadenomas are common, benign (non-cancerous) breast tumors made up of both glandular tissue and stromal (connective) tissue. Fibroadenomas are most common in women in their 20s and 30s, but they can be found in women of any age. They tend to shrink after a woman goes through menopause.
ICD-10 code N60. 2 for Fibroadenosis of breast is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the genitourinary system .
39 (Encounter for other screening for malignant neoplasm of breast). Z12. 39 is the correct code to use when employing any other breast cancer screening technique (besides mammogram) and is generally used with breast MRIs.
The cause of fibroadenomas is not known. They might be related to hormones that control your periods. Less common types of fibroadenomas and related breast lumps may not act the same as typical fibroadenomas.
(FY-broh-a-deh-NOH-muh) A benign (not cancer) tumor that most often forms in the breast and is made up of fibrous (connective) tissue and glandular tissue. A fibroadenoma is usually painless. It often feels like a hard, round lump with a smooth, well-defined border that moves easily under the skin of the breast.

Fibrocystic Disease – Benign Breast Masses – Chronic Cystic Mastitis – Mammary Dysplasia (ICD-10: N60)
Fibroepithelial lesions of the breast are biphasic neoplasms that comprise a wide spectrum of tumors ranging from the common indolent fibroadenoma to the rare malignant phyllodes tumor, with tumors of borderline clinical significance in between [1, 2].
Z12. 31 (Encounter for screening mammogram for malignant neoplasm of breast) is reported for screening mammograms while Z12. 39 (Encounter for other screening for malignant neoplasm of breast) has been established for reporting screening studies for breast cancer outside the scope of mammograms.
A screening colonoscopy should be reported with the following International Classification of Diseases, 10th edition (ICD-10) codes: Z12. 11: Encounter for screening for malignant neoplasm of the colon.
Z12. 31, Encounter for screening mammogram for malignant neoplasm of breast, is the primary diagnosis code assigned for a screening mammogram. If the mammogram is diagnostic, the ICD-10-CM code assigned is the reason the diagnostic mammogram was performed.
It is safe to leave fibroadenomas where they are. While fibroadenomas are not cancerous, it is sometimes difficult for clinicians and women to feel completely confident that a lump is not cancerous. Some of these lumps need to be removed or have a biopsy to stop this concern.
The large majority of fibroadenomas will not turn into breast cancer. However, it is possible for complex fibroadeomas to become cancerous. This type of lump is less common and faster growing than simple fibroadenomas and contains changes such as cell overgrowth (hyperplasia) and calcium deposits.
Women with a diagnosis of fibroadenoma had a 74% higher rate of being diagnosed with breast cancer than women without a diagnosis (unadjusted HR = 1.74 [95% CI = 1.33 to 2.27]).
Breast enlargement can occur in as short as a few weeks, and the mass can double in size within three to six months, growing larger than the existing normal breast tissue (8, 9). The standard treatment of all giant fibroadenomas is surgical excision (2).
benign neoplasm of connective tissue of breast. benign neoplasm of soft parts of breast. fibroadenoma of breast. Clinical Information. A benign (not cancer) tumor that usually forms in the breast from both fibrous and glandular tissue. Fibroadenomas are the most common benign breast tumors.
It is the most common benign breast lesion. It usually occurs in women of childbearing age. The majority of fibroadenomas do not recur after complete excision. A slightly increased risk of developing cancer within fibroadenomas or in the breast tissue of patients previously treated for fibroadenomas has been reported.
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, ...
