Benign neoplasm of pelvic bones, sacrum and coccyx

This code signifies the presence of a non-malignant tumor originating in the bones of the pelvis, sacrum, or coccyx. These are typically slow-growing lesions that do not metastasize and are often discovered incidentally or due to localized pain or swelling.

Use this code when diagnostic imaging (e.g., X-ray, CT, MRI) and/or biopsy confirm a benign neoplastic process within the specified pelvic bones. Documentation should clearly state "benign neoplasm" or a specific benign tumor type (e.g., osteochondroma, enchondroma, osteoma) located in the pelvis, sacrum, or coccyx.

• Ensure the documentation explicitly states "benign" to differentiate from malignant bone tumors.
• Verify the exact anatomical site within the pelvic girdle; if more specific, consider codes for individual bones if available and appropriate.
• Do not use for unspecified bone tumors; further clarification from the provider would be necessary.
