ICD-10 Code C82.68 – Cutaneous follicle center lymphoma, lymph nodes of multiple sites (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C82.68 – Cutaneous follicle center lymphoma, lymph nodes of multiple sites
What it is
This code identifies cutaneous follicle center lymphoma involving lymph nodes at multiple sites. It represents a lymphoma diagnosis documented as affecting both skin-related disease and multiple nodal regions.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. You may see localized skin lesions with nodal involvement, and the record should support the lymphoma subtype and the presence of multiple affected lymph node sites.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents cutaneous follicle center lymphoma with lymph node involvement at more than one site. It is appropriate when the note clearly links the lymphoma to multiple nodal regions, not just a single node or skin lesion alone.
If the chart only states cutaneous follicle center lymphoma without nodal spread, check documentation before assigning this code. Confirm the anatomic sites and whether the disease is described as involving multiple lymph nodes.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for unspecified lymphoma, isolated skin disease without nodal involvement, or a single involved lymph node site. Check documentation if the subtype or extent is unclear.
Coding tip
Code only when the record explicitly supports both the cutaneous follicle center lymphoma diagnosis and involvement of multiple lymph node sites.
