ICD-10 Code C82.93 – Follicular lymphoma, unspecified, intra-abdominal lymph nodes (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Follicular lymphoma, unspecified, intra-abdominal lymph nodes is C82.93.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C82.93 – Follicular lymphoma, unspecified, intra-abdominal lymph nodes

What it is

C82.93 identifies follicular lymphoma when the involved lymph nodes are intra-abdominal and the subtype is not further specified. Use this code for a documented follicular lymphoma diagnosis in abdominal nodal tissue.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Follicular lymphoma is often an indolent lymphoma with enlarged lymph nodes, and intra-abdominal involvement may be found on imaging or biopsy.

When to use this code

Use C82.93 when the record states follicular lymphoma and specifically names intra-abdominal lymph nodes, but does not identify a more specific site or subtype. It also fits when pathology or oncology notes confirm abdominal nodal disease without additional detail. Check documentation if the site is described only generally.

Do not use for

Do not use this code if the lymphoma site is outside the abdomen or if a different lymphoma type is documented. Do not assign it when the chart only says “lymphoma” without confirming follicular lymphoma.

Coding tip

Match the anatomic site exactly; if the note says mesenteric, retroperitoneal, or other intra-abdominal nodes, confirm whether C82.93 is supported.
