- Billable — Valid for Submission
- Not Chronic
D39.8 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for neoplasm of uncertain behavior of other specified female genital organs. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 731 through 733, 754 through 756. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Neoplasms of unspecified nature or uncertain behavior.

Instructional NotesGuidance
Instructions from the official ICD-10-CM Tabular List that apply to D39.8: its own notes plus those printed at block D37-D48 and Chapter 2. A note printed at a category, block or chapter applies to every code under it.
Applicable To
Conditions this code is used for: synonyms of the title or, for "other specified" codes, the conditions assigned to it. The list is not exhaustive.
- Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of skin of female genital organs
Excludes1
Not coded here: the excluded code is never reported together with this one, unless the two conditions are unrelated.
- neoplasms of unspecified behavior (D49.-)
Notes
General instructions on how these codes are used.
- Functional activity
- All neoplasms are classified in this chapter, whether they are functionally active or not. An additional code from Chapter 4 may be used, to identify functional activity associated with any neoplasm.
- Morphology [Histology]
- Chapter 2 classifies neoplasms primarily by site (topography), with broad groupings for behavior, malignant, in situ, benign, etc. The Table of Neoplasms should be used to identify the correct topography code. In a few cases, such as for malignant melanoma and certain neuroendocrine tumors, the morphology (histologic type) is included in the category and codes.
- Primary malignant neoplasms overlapping site boundaries
- A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere. For multiple neoplasms of the same site that are not contiguous, such as tumors in different quadrants of the same breast, codes for each site should be assigned.
- Malignant neoplasm of ectopic tissue
- Malignant neoplasms of ectopic tissue are to be coded to the site mentioned, e.g., ectopic pancreatic malignant neoplasms are coded to pancreas, unspecified (C25.9).

Patient EducationClinical
Ovarian Disorders
The ovaries are a pair of female reproductive glands that make eggs and female hormones. Women have one ovary on each side of the uterus (where a fetus grows during pregnancy). Each ovary is about the size and shape of an almond.

Questions About D39.8Overview
Is D39.8 (Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of female genital organs) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report neoplasm of uncertain behavior of other specified female genital organs on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What MS-DRG does D39.8 group to?
When neoplasm of uncertain behavior of other specified female genital organs is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 732, 755, 756, 754, 733, 731, with relative weights from 0.8583 to 3.5462 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Can D39.8 be reported with a code from D49?
Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at block D37-D48, which applies to D39.8, lists "neoplasms of unspecified behavior (D49.-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of D39.8?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, neoplasm of uncertain behavior of other specified female genital organs converts to ICD-9-CM 236.3 (unc behav neo female NEC). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
