2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C83.36 – Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, intrapelvic lymph nodes

What it is

C83.36 identifies diffuse large B-cell lymphoma involving intrapelvic lymph nodes. Use it when documentation specifies this lymphoma subtype and pelvic nodal site.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. You may see enlarged pelvic lymph nodes on imaging, biopsy-confirmed large B-cell lymphoma, or symptoms from nodal mass effect.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in intrapelvic lymph nodes, such as pelvic nodal disease confirmed by pathology or imaging with clear site specification. Code it only when the anatomic location and lymphoma type are both stated.

Do not use for

Do not use it for unspecified lymphoma, other B-cell lymphoma subtypes, or disease limited to non-pelvic nodes. Check documentation if the record does not clearly identify intrapelvic lymph node involvement.

Coding tip

Verify both the histology and the pelvic nodal site before assigning C83.36.
