Benign neoplasm of other specified female genital organs

This code signifies the presence of a non-cancerous growth originating from female reproductive organs not specifically categorized elsewhere, such as the broad ligament, round ligament, or parovarian tissue. These are typically slow-growing and do not metastasize.

Apply this code when documentation confirms a benign neoplasm of female genital organs like the broad ligament, round ligament, or other adnexal structures, excluding the ovary, fallopian tube, uterus, vagina, or vulva. Supporting documentation should include pathology reports confirming benignity and the specific anatomical site.

• Ensure the documentation clearly specifies the exact anatomical site to differentiate from benign neoplasms of the ovary (D27.-), fallopian tube (D28.0), or uterus (D26.-).
• Always review pathology reports to confirm the benign nature of the neoplasm.
• Do not use this code for malignant neoplasms; refer to the C57.- series for malignant neoplasms of other female genital organs.
