Maternal care for benign tumor of corpus uteri, unsp tri

This code signifies antenatal care provided to a pregnant patient diagnosed with a benign tumor originating in the body of the uterus. It specifically indicates that the trimester of pregnancy at the time of care is not documented or specified. This condition can include uterine fibroids (leiomyomas) that are present during pregnancy.

Apply this code when a pregnant patient receives medical attention for a benign uterine corpus tumor, and the medical record does not specify the trimester. This is appropriate for routine prenatal visits where the fibroid is monitored, or for managing symptoms directly related to the fibroid during pregnancy. Documentation should clearly state the presence of a benign uterine tumor and the pregnancy.

• Do not use this code if the trimester is known; instead, select the appropriate O34.1- subcategory specifying the trimester (e.g., O34.11, O34.12, O34.13).
• Always sequence this code as a primary diagnosis when the fibroid is the focus of the encounter, followed by codes for any associated symptoms or complications.
• Ensure documentation specifies "benign tumor" and "corpus uteri" to support this code, as other uterine tumors or locations would require different codes.
