C50.412 – Malignant neoplasm of upper-outer quadrant of left female breast

Yes, this ICD-10 code is billable.

It’s best to use this code once the female patient is confirmed to have malignant tumor in the upper-outer quadrant of their left breast.

This depends on the cancer stage or how bad the tumor is, but treatment can include surgical procedures like mastectomy or lumpectomy of the left breast, and/or various therapies like chemotherapy and hormone therapy.
