Hello all. I work for a general surgeon, and have run afoul of a diagnosis. The patient has two distinct cysts in her right breast, a complex one at 10 o'clock, and another -not complex- at 12 o'clock. Is the ICD 10 code N60.01, solitary cyst of the right breast? Or is it N60.11, diffuse cystic mastopathy?
I'm confused because the cysts are not diffuse, and since there are more than one, also not solitary.

Did the provider give you a diagnosis? what is the provider referring to when it comes to the diagnosis besides what the operative report states?
