N88.8 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of other specified noninflammatory disorders of cervix uteri. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.

The ICD code N888 is used to code Nabothian cyst

A nabothian cyst (or nabothian follicle) is a mucus-filled cyst on the surface of the cervix. They are most often caused when stratified squamous epithelium of the ectocervix (toward the vagina) grows over the simple columnar epithelium of the endocervix (toward the uterus). This tissue growth can block the cervical crypts (subdermal pockets usually 2–10 mm in diameter), trapping cervical mucus inside the crypts.

Specialty: Obstetrics And Gynaecology
ICD 9 Code: 616.0

622.8
Other specified noninflammatory disorders of cervix (exact match)

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 622.8 was previously used, N88.8 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
