Medical necessity for removing a polyp is typically based on symptoms such as abnormal bleeding, pain, or suspicion of malignancy based on clinical examination or imaging.The need for treatment should be documented.

Gynecologist or other qualified healthcare professional specializing in women's health.

IMPORTANT:Excludes adenomatous polyp (D28.-) and placental polyp (O90.89).

In simple words: This code describes a noncancerous growth (polyp) found in a woman's reproductive organs (cervix, vagina, or vulva).

N84 in the ICD-10-CM classification refers to a polyp of the female genital tract.This code encompasses benign growths protruding from the mucous membrane of the female reproductive organs, including the cervix, vagina, or vulva.The code excludes adenomatous polyps (classified elsewhere) and placental polyps.

Example 1: A 45-year-old female patient presents with abnormal uterine bleeding.A colposcopy reveals a cervical polyp.The polyp is removed, and pathology confirms it is benign., During a routine pelvic exam, a 30-year-old female patient is found to have a vaginal polyp.The polyp is biopsied, and the results show it is benign and does not require further treatment., A 60-year-old postmenopausal woman reports vaginal bleeding.Examination reveals a vulvar polyp.The polyp is excised, and histopathological analysis is consistent with a benign lesion.

* Detailed history and physical examination documenting the patient's symptoms and findings.* Imaging studies (if performed) such as ultrasound or MRI.* Documentation of the procedure performed to remove the polyp (e.g., polypectomy).* Pathology report confirming the nature of the polyp (benign or malignant).

** Further sub-classification may be possible depending on the location of the polyp (cervix, vagina, vulva) and specific findings of the pathology report.Always refer to the most recent version of the ICD-10-CM coding manual.
