Malignant neoplasm of glans penis

This code signifies the presence of a cancerous tumor originating in the glans penis, the rounded head at the end of the penis. This malignancy is a type of penile cancer, specifically localized to the distal-most portion of the organ.

This code is appropriate for documenting a confirmed diagnosis of primary malignant neoplasm affecting the glans penis. Use when pathology reports or clinical findings definitively identify a cancerous growth in this specific anatomical site.

• Ensure documentation specifies "glans penis" to differentiate from other penile sites.
• Do not use for benign lesions or malignancies of other penile structures (e.g., shaft, prepuce).
• Consider additional codes for any associated metastasis or complications.
