Clinical Terms in This Code Range
Definitions from the National Library of Medicine for conditions coded in the D36 range.
Benign Neoplasm
A neoplasm characterized by the absence of atypical or malignant cytological and architectural features, and absence of invasive features or metastatic potential.
Ganglioneuroma
A benign neoplasm that usually arises from the sympathetic trunk in the mediastinum. Histologic features include spindle cell proliferation (resembling a neurofibroma) and the presence of large ganglion cells. The tumor may present clinically with HORNER SYNDROME or diarrhea due to ectopic production of vasoactive intestinal peptide. (From DeVita et al., Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, 5th ed, p966)
About the D36 Code Range
These noncancerous growths occur in lymph nodes, nerves, or other specified or unspecified body sites.

D36.7 identifies other specified sites, while D36.9 leaves the site unspecified.
