Hello everyone ,

 How do you code a carcinoma that was implanted through a donor organ?

 Thank you for your help.

 Hi Christiane,

 I didn't find specific code for this condition.

 My opinion is to use a code for carcinoma of the specified site or organ and accompanied by the code for the condition of presence of transplant of that organ.
