Other benign neoplasm of cervix uteri
ICD-10 D26.0 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of other benign neoplasm of cervix uteri.
D26.0 refers to other benign neoplasms of the cervix uteri, which are non-cancerous growths that can occur in the cervical tissue. These neoplasms may include various types of tumors such as adenomas, fibromas, or other benign lesions that do not exhibit malignant characteristics. Clinically, these neoplasms may present with symptoms such as abnormal vaginal bleeding, pelvic pain, or may be asymptomatic and discovered incidentally during routine gynecological examinations. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of pelvic examinations, imaging studies such as ultrasound or MRI, and histopathological evaluation following biopsy. Management of benign neoplasms of the cervix may include observation, medical management, or surgical intervention depending on the size, symptoms, and potential complications associated with the neoplasm. Regular follow-up is essential to monitor for any changes in the neoplasm's characteristics or symptoms, ensuring timely intervention if necessary.
