2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code B67.32 – Echinococcus granulosus infection, multiple sites

What it is

B67.32 identifies hydatid disease caused by Echinococcus granulosus with involvement of multiple body sites. Use it when documentation confirms infection in more than one location.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Patients may have cyst-related findings, pain, or mass effects depending on the organs involved, and imaging is often used to define the extent.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents Echinococcus granulosus infection affecting multiple sites, such as more than one organ or anatomical region. It is appropriate when the record clearly supports disseminated or multi-site hydatid disease. If the site is not specified, check documentation before coding.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for a single-site hydatid cyst or for Echinococcus infection when the species is not documented. Check documentation if the chart only states echinococcosis without confirming multiple sites.

Coding tip

Verify both the organism and the number of sites documented before assigning B67.32.
