Hope everyone had a nice Memorial Day weekend!

Unfortunately, it's time to get back to work.

I'm hoping someone can help me with this DX, "soft tissue mass in the esophageal gastric junction". I'm not sure what to assign here. It's pending evaluation so, until then, this is the most definitive DX I've got.
 
Good shot with 789.36. We can not find one more specific than this until you get to know what mass it is from path report.
I dont find a reason to place a mass under a 'disorder category' when it is a 'mass' and when there is a code specific for a mass in the epigastric region.
Thank you
