ICD-10 Code D26 – Other benign neoplasms of uterus (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D26 – Other benign neoplasms of uterus
What it is
D26 identifies benign, noncancerous growths of the uterus that do not fit a more specific uterine benign neoplasm code. Use it when the record confirms a benign uterine tumor but does not name a precise subtype.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Benign uterine neoplasms may be found on imaging, pelvic exam, or pathology, and can be associated with abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pressure, or an enlarged uterus.
When to use this code
Use D26 when the clinician documents a benign neoplasm of the uterus and no more specific ICD-10 code applies. It is appropriate for confirmed benign uterine tumors after evaluation, including cases described as “other” or unspecified benign uterine neoplasm.
Do not use for
Do not use D26 for malignant uterine tumors, uterine leiomyoma, or benign conditions that are not neoplasms. If the documentation is unclear, check documentation before coding.
Coding tip
Code to the most specific benign uterine neoplasm documented; if the subtype is not stated, D26 may be the best fit.
