2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C67.7 – Malignant neoplasm of urachus

What it is

C67.7 identifies a malignant tumor arising from the urachus, a fetal remnant between the bladder and umbilicus. Use it when documentation specifies a cancer of the urachal remnant or urachal origin.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Urachal malignancies are often noted with hematuria, suprapubic mass, abdominal pain, or umbilical discharge, but you should code only what is documented.

When to use this code

Use C67.7 when the provider documents primary malignant neoplasm of the urachus, urachal carcinoma, or a malignant lesion clearly arising from the urachal remnant. It may also be supported by pathology, operative, or imaging reports identifying urachal origin. If the record only says bladder cancer without urachal involvement, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for benign urachal lesions, urachal cysts, or nonspecific bladder tumors. If the site is uncertain or documentation conflicts, check documentation before assigning C67.7.

Coding tip

Look for the exact phrase “urachal” in the diagnosis or pathology report before coding C67.7.
