Other codes that can never be billed with D18.0

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at D18.0. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading D18.0 alone.

D33Benign neoplasm of brain and other parts of central nervous system
D21Other benign neoplasms of connective and other soft tissue
