Embryonic cyst of cervix

This code represents a benign, fluid-filled sac or lesion originating from embryonic remnants within the cervical tissue. These cysts are typically asymptomatic and discovered incidentally during gynecological examinations. They are distinct from Nabothian cysts, which arise from obstructed cervical glands.

Use this code when documentation specifically identifies an "embryonic cyst of the cervix" or "mesonephric duct cyst of the cervix." This diagnosis is often made via colposcopy, biopsy, or imaging studies confirming the embryonic origin. Do not use for other types of cervical cysts.

• Differentiate carefully from Nabothian cysts (N88.0), which are much more common and have a different etiology.
• Ensure the documentation explicitly states "embryonic" or "mesonephric" to support this specific code.
• If the cyst is symptomatic or requires intervention, ensure those details are also coded appropriately.
