ICD-10 Code C63.11 – Malignant neoplasm of right spermatic cord (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C63.11 – Malignant neoplasm of right spermatic cord
What it is
This code identifies a malignant tumor arising in the right spermatic cord. Use it when documentation specifies cancer of that exact anatomic site.
Clinical signs
Findings may include a palpable scrotal or inguinal mass, localized swelling, or pain. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation and pathology when available.
When to use this code
Use C63.11 when the provider documents primary cancer of the right spermatic cord, including confirmed malignant neoplasm at that site. Apply it from operative, pathology, or oncology notes that clearly name the right spermatic cord.
If the record only says “spermatic cord mass” or “tumor” without malignant confirmation, you should not assign this code. Check documentation for laterality and whether the lesion is primary, secondary, or uncertain.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for benign spermatic cord lesions, nonspecific scrotal masses, or malignancy of a different genitourinary site. Check documentation if the laterality is not stated.
Coding tip
Verify that the chart states both malignancy and right-sided spermatic cord involvement before coding.
