Basic ICD-10-CM/PCS Coding - Ahima Press :: Home

Assign site code C259 (or a more specific portion of the pancreas, if possible) even though ICD O 3 suggests that the site breast (C50._) is most ordinarily associated with this morphology. A patient has metastatic duct carcinoma (8500/3) in the right axillary nodes, but no primary tumor can be found in the right breast or elsewhere. ................
