Code Classification

  • Neoplasms
    (C00–D49)
    • Benign neoplasms, except benign neuroendocrine tumors
      (D10-D36)
      • Benign neoplasm of other and ill-defined parts of digestive system
        (D13)

D13.4 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of benign neoplasm of liver. The code is valid during the current fiscal year for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions from October 01, 2023 through September 30, 2024.

The following anatomical sites found in the Table of Neoplasms reference this diagnosis code given the correct histological behavior: Neoplasm, neoplastic bile or biliary (tract) canaliculi (biliferi) (intrahepatic) ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bile or biliary (tract) canals, interlobular ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bile or biliary (tract) duct or passage (common) (cystic) (extrahepatic) interlobular ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bile or biliary (tract) duct or passage (common) (cystic) (extrahepatic) intrahepatic ; Neoplasm, neoplastic canaliculi, biliary (biliferi) (intrahepatic) ; Neoplasm, neoplastic cholangiole ; Neoplasm, neoplastic gall duct (extrahepatic) intrahepatic ; etc

Approximate Synonyms

The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:

  • Adenoma of liver
  • Benign neoplasm of intrahepatic bile ducts
  • Benign neoplasm of liver
  • Benign neoplasm of liver and/or biliary ducts
  • Bile duct adenoma of intrahepatic bile duct
  • Cholangioadenoma
  • Hepatic cystadenoma
  • Hepatocellular adenoma
  • Liver adenomatosis
  • Liver hamartoma
  • Mesenchymal hamartoma of liver

Clinical Classification

Clinical Information

  • Hep G2 Cells

    a human liver tumor cell line used to study a variety of liver-specific metabolic functions.
  • Hepatoblastoma

    a malignant neoplasm occurring in young children, primarily in the liver, composed of tissue resembling embryonal or fetal hepatic epithelium, or mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. (stedman, 25th ed)

Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries

The following annotation back-references are applicable to this diagnosis code. The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10-CM codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more.


Inclusion Terms

Inclusion Terms
These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. The inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive. Additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.
  • Benign neoplasm of intrahepatic bile ducts

Index to Diseases and Injuries References

The following annotation back-references for this diagnosis code are found in the injuries and diseases index. The Index to Diseases and Injuries is an alphabetical listing of medical terms, with each term mapped to one or more ICD-10-CM code(s).

Convert D13.4 to ICD-9-CM

  • ICD-9-CM Code: 211.5 - Ben neo liver/bile ducts
    Approximate Flag - The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 and ICD-9 codes and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.

Table of Neoplasms

This code is referenced in the table of neoplasms by anatomical site. For each site there are six possible code numbers according to whether the neoplasm in question is malignant, benign, in situ, of uncertain behavior, or of unspecified nature. The description of the neoplasm will often indicate which of the six columns is appropriate.

Where such descriptors are not present, the remainder of the Index should be consulted where guidance is given to the appropriate column for each morphological (histological) variety listed. However, the guidance in the Index can be overridden if one of the descriptors mentioned above is present.

Patient Education


Benign Tumors

Tumors are abnormal growths in your body. They can be either benign or malignant. Benign tumors aren't cancer. Malignant ones are. Benign tumors grow only in one place. They cannot spread or invade other parts of your body. Even so, they can be dangerous if they press on vital organs, such as your brain.

Tumors are made up of extra cells. Normally, cells grow and divide to form new cells as your body needs them. When cells grow old, they die, and new cells take their place. Sometimes, this process goes wrong. New cells form when your body does not need them, and old cells do not die when they should. These extra cells can divide without stopping and may form tumor.

Treatment often involves surgery. Benign tumors usually don't grow back.

Liver Diseases

Your liver is the largest organ inside your body. It helps your body digest food, store energy, and remove poisons.

There are many kinds of liver diseases:

  • Diseases caused by viruses, such as hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C
  • Diseases caused by drugs, poisons, or too much alcohol. Examples include fatty liver disease and cirrhosis.
  • Liver cancer
  • Inherited diseases, such as hemochromatosis and Wilson disease

Symptoms of liver disease can vary, but they often include swelling of the abdomen and legs, bruising easily, changes in the color of your stool and urine, and jaundice, or yellowing of the skin and eyes. Sometimes there are no symptoms. Tests such as imaging tests and liver function tests can check for liver damage and help to diagnose liver diseases.

Footnotes

[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
