C7B.02 Secondary carcinoid tumors of liver
C7B.03 Secondary carcinoid tumors of bone
C7B.04 Secondary carcinoid tumors of peritoneum
C7B.09 Secondary carcinoid tumors of other sites

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
