== Additional Info == | |||
*Carcinoid tumors are of neuroendocrine origin. They are usually slow-growing. They may secrete one or another substance that leads to a variety of symptoms, of which the most common is [[Carcinoid syndrome]]. But not all carcinoids secrete. Also, carcinoid tumors may be malignant (this code) or benign. They can arise in any organ, though the GI tract is the most common source. | |||
**As of January 2021 we have not included a specific code for benign carcinoid tumors --- to code one use the appropriate benign neoplasm code and IF the person also has [[Carcinoid syndrome]], link it to that code. | |||
*This code is for a carcincoid located anywhere; also code [[Carcinoid syndrome]] if present | |||
*IF it is known, you can link this code with the origin of the carcinoid tumor --- e.g. if it is a carcinoid originating in the lung, link this code with [[Lung and/or bronchus, primary malignancy]] | |||
