I am new to coding path reports, I can understand most of them but I got this one and was a little confused-
Diagnosis:
Lymph node, right neck, biopsy:
-T-cell/histiocyte rich diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, germinal center phenotype.
Is this malignant??
 
how to code pathology

If you go to the neoplasm chapter guidelines in the front of your icd 9 manual it gives you specific instructions on how to look up the code when you are given the histological term.
