The icd-9 code vaginal lesion would depend on what type of lesion it is. If it were a lesion caused by disease, it would be coded V50.1. If it is cosmetic, such as a skin tag or wart, then it won't have a code.
I'm not sure if there's much of a difference. I complained of headaches in the left frontal lobe area and after having a CAT scan and MRI, I was told that there was some scar tissue (in my left frontal lobe); but that it was of no consequence and probably from an old injury...WHAT! I knew there was a problem with my brain (I've had it rattled a few times); but the doctors say "nothing to worry about"!!!
