Does anybody know the difference between 182.0 and 182.8. The following is the dictation from the physician.
Pathology from surgery is reveiwed and is as follows: Uterus, bilateral adnexa, total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy: High grade serous adenocarcinoma of endometrium; full thickness myometrial invasion; approximately 36% cervical stromal invasion; lymph-vascular space invasion is present; adenomyosis; atrophic left and right ovaries; unremarkable left and right fallopian tubes. Right pelvic lymph nodes, excision: Metastatic carcinoma in one of ten lymph nodes.
So with this, would you code 182.0 or 182.8???
Please help???
