ICD-10 Code D30.1 – Benign neoplasm of renal pelvis (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Benign neoplasm of renal pelvis is D30.1.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D30.1 – Benign neoplasm of renal pelvis

What it is

D30.1 identifies a noncancerous tumor arising in the renal pelvis, the collecting area where urine drains from the kidney. Use it when the record clearly documents a benign neoplasm in this site.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Patients may have hematuria, flank pain, or an incidental imaging finding, but the diagnosis should be supported by clinician documentation or pathology.

When to use this code

Use D30.1 when the provider documents a benign neoplasm of the renal pelvis, including cases confirmed by imaging, endoscopy, or histology. It is also appropriate for follow-up care when the documented diagnosis remains active. Check documentation if the lesion is described only as a mass or lesion without a benign neoplasm diagnosis.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for malignant renal pelvis tumors, urothelial carcinoma, or unspecified urinary tract masses. If the site or behavior is unclear, check documentation before assigning D30.1.

Coding tip

Verify both the benign behavior and the renal pelvis site; a renal parenchymal or ureteral lesion is coded elsewhere.
