Personal history of malig neoplasm of female genital organs

This code indicates a patient's past history of a malignant tumor affecting female reproductive organs other than the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix, or vagina. This includes cancers of the vulva, clitoris, or other specified female genital sites. The patient is no longer actively being treated for the primary malignancy at this site.

This code is appropriate for documenting a patient's history of a successfully treated or in-remission cancer of the vulva, clitoris, or other specified female genital organs. It is used for follow-up visits, screenings, or when the history impacts current medical management, even if the current encounter is for an unrelated condition.

• Always confirm the specific primary site of the past malignancy to ensure it falls under "other female genital organs."
• Do not use this code if the patient is still actively receiving treatment for the primary malignancy; instead, code the active malignancy.
• This code is typically a secondary diagnosis, indicating a risk factor or influencing current care decisions.
