The following are the ICD-10 medical codes: ICD-0: 8832/3 [44] – dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, NOS; ICD-0: 8833/3 [44] – pigmented dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans; ICD-0: 8834/1 [44] – giant cell fibroblastoma; Fibrosarcomatous dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans: no distinct coding identified
[2] [8] [9] [10] The tumor cells in DFSP and DFSP-FS harbor one or more fusion gene mutations, i.e. mutations that merge two previously independent genes. The COL1A1-PDGFB fusion gene is the most common fusion gene found in both tumor types. [11] [12] However, DFSP-FS tumor cells have higher copy numbers of the COL1A1-PDGFB fusion gene than do ...
The hard fibroma (fibroma durum) consists of many fibres and few cells, e.g. in skin it is called dermatofibroma (fibroma simplex or nodulus cutaneous). [2] A special form is the keloid, which derives from hyperplastic growth of scars.
ICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO). It contains codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases. [1]
As of October 2023, specific codes for desmoid tumors will be included in the ICD-10-CM, the United States' diagnosis code system, after a request from the Desmoid Tumor Research Foundation. [51] A subcategory of D48.1, Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of connective and other soft tissue, has been created with more specific codes: [50]
Under the proposal, the ICD-9-CM code sets would be replaced with the ICD-10-CM code sets, effective October 1, 2013. On April 17, 2012, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) published a proposed rule that would delay the compliance date for the ICD-10-CM and PCS by 12 months-from October 1, 2013, to October 1, 2014.

The term fibromatosis refers to a group of soft tissue tumors [1] which have certain characteristics in common, including absence of cytologic and clinical malignant features, a histology consistent with proliferation of well-differentiated fibroblasts, an infiltrative growth pattern, and aggressive clinical behavior with frequent local recurrence.
