Malignant neoplasm of paraurethral glands

This code identifies a primary cancerous tumor originating in the paraurethral glands, also known as Skene's glands, which are located near the female urethra. This is a rare form of genitourinary malignancy.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a primary malignant neoplasm specifically of the paraurethral glands. This typically requires pathological confirmation of malignancy and the precise anatomical site.

• Ensure the documentation specifies "paraurethral glands" and not a general urethral or bladder neoplasm.
• Distinguish from benign neoplasms or other inflammatory conditions of these glands.
• Always sequence as the primary diagnosis when it is the reason for the encounter.
