Disorders of visual pathways in (due to) neoplasm, right side

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

Problems with the visual pathways on the right side of the brain caused by a tumor or abnormal growth.

Coding Tips

  • •Confirm the neoplasm is documented and laterality is right; code the neoplasm separately with appropriate ICD-10 code
  • •If laterality is unspecified, use H47.529 instead
