ICD-10 Code C63.2 – Malignant neoplasm of scrotum (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C63.2 – Malignant neoplasm of scrotum
What it is
This code identifies a malignant tumor arising in the scrotum, the external sac that holds the testicles. Use it when the documentation states primary cancer of the scrotal skin or scrotal tissue.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly documented findings may include a persistent scrotal mass, ulceration, bleeding, pain, or local skin changes, but the diagnosis must be confirmed in the record.
When to use this code
Use C63.2 when the provider documents malignant neoplasm of the scrotum, including a primary cancer involving that anatomic site. It may also apply when pathology or oncology notes clearly identify the scrotum as the primary location. If the site is uncertain or another genital site is named, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for benign scrotal lesions, infections, or nonspecific scrotal masses without a cancer diagnosis. It is also incorrect if the malignancy is documented as arising in another genital structure.
Coding tip
Confirm the exact anatomic site and whether the scrotum is the primary site before assigning C63.2.
