We generally code tumors as either
* [[:Category:Primary malignancy]] (wastebasket: [[Primary malignancy (solid tumor) of site unknown or NOS]])
* [[:Category:Benign neoplasm]] (wastebasket: [[Benign neoplasm, NOS]])
* [[:Category:Metastasis]] (wastebasket: [[Site NOS, metastatic malignancy to it (also code primary site)]])
* if nothing specific is available in those categories, as [[#Disorder NOS codes]] of the affected organ.  


We generally code tumors as either malignancies, non-malignant neoplasms, or if nothing specific is available in those categories, as <organ, NOS>. See also [[Template:ICD10 Guideline Cancer]].
