2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C62.92 – Malignant neoplasm of left testis, unspecified whether descended or undescended

What it is

This code identifies a malignant tumor in the left testis when the record does not specify whether the testis is descended or undescended. Use it for documented primary testicular cancer on the left side.

Clinical signs

Common findings include a painless testicular mass, swelling, heaviness, or asymmetry of the scrotum. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation and imaging or pathology when available.

When to use this code

Use C62.92 when the provider documents malignant neoplasm of the left testis and does not state descended or undescended status. It also fits pathology-confirmed testicular cancer limited to the left side. If the record later specifies a different site or laterality, update coding accordingly.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for benign testicular masses, infection, torsion, or unspecified testicular cancer without left-sided documentation. Check documentation if the tumor involves the tunica, epididymis, or another genital site.

Coding tip

Confirm laterality and whether the testis is descended before assigning C62.92.
