Neoplasms
C00-D49
Neoplasms are classified here by behavior (malignant, benign, in situ, uncertain, or unspecified) and by anatomical site. How a neoplasm code is sequenced against other diagnoses depends heavily on whether the current encounter is for treatment of the tumor itself or for management of a related complication.
