Leukoplakia of cervix uteri

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

What This Code Means

White patches or plaques on the cervix that represent abnormal tissue changes and require evaluation to rule out malignancy.

Coding Tips

  • •Leukoplakia is a clinical finding that requires biopsy to determine the underlying pathology; document biopsy results when available
  • •Do not assume leukoplakia is dysplasia; confirm the histological diagnosis and code accordingly (may be dysplasia, carcinoma, or benign)
