I need help with locating a diagnosis for "intracardiac mass". Help!!
 
Our physician uses myxoma all the time. The only code I have found is 239.89. However, we switched to Carol Buck's ICD-9 book this year and it specifically states "the term "mass," unless otherwise stated, is not to be regarded as a neoplastic growth." But my physician states myxoma as his dx.
