Mixed cellularity Hodgkin lymphoma, intrathorac lymph nodes

This code signifies a specific type of Hodgkin lymphoma, characterized by a heterogeneous mix of cells, including Reed-Sternberg cells, lymphocytes, eosinophils, and plasma cells. The disease is located within the intrathoracic lymph nodes, which are lymph nodes found within the chest cavity.

Assign this code when documentation confirms a diagnosis of mixed cellularity Hodgkin lymphoma affecting lymph nodes within the thorax. This diagnosis is typically established through biopsy and histopathological examination of the affected lymph nodes.

• Ensure the pathology report specifically identifies "mixed cellularity" as the subtype of Hodgkin lymphoma.
• Verify that the anatomical location is explicitly stated as "intrathoracic lymph nodes" to differentiate from extrathoracic involvement.
• Do not confuse with other Hodgkin lymphoma subtypes or non-Hodgkin lymphomas; precise histological classification is crucial.
