- benign neoplasm of mucosa of lip D10.0
- benign neoplasm of nasopharyngeal surface of soft palate D10.6
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.
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

Patient EducationClinical
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.

Questions About D10.39Overview
What is the ICD-10 code for benign neoplasm of other parts of mouth?
The ICD-10-CM code for benign neoplasm of other parts of mouth is D10.39 (sometimes written as D1039). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
Is D10.39 (Benign neoplasm of other and unspecified parts of mouth) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report benign neoplasm of other parts of mouth on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What MS-DRG does D10.39 group to?
When benign neoplasm of other parts of mouth is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 11, 12, 13, 157, 158, 159, with relative weights from 0.7085 to 5.4541 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of D10.39?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, benign neoplasm of other parts of mouth converts to ICD-9-CM 210.4 (benign neo mouth NEC/NOS). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
