ICD-10 Code C83.75 – Burkitt lymphoma, lymph nodes of inguinal region and lower limb (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C83.75 – Burkitt lymphoma, lymph nodes of inguinal region and lower limb
What it is
C83.75 identifies Burkitt lymphoma involving the lymph nodes of the inguinal region and lower limb. Use it when the record specifies this anatomic site and the diagnosis is Burkitt lymphoma.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Records may note rapidly enlarging lymph nodes in the groin or lower extremity region, with pathology confirming Burkitt lymphoma.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents Burkitt lymphoma affecting inguinal or lower-limb lymph nodes, or when pathology and site-specific documentation support that diagnosis. Code it for confirmed cases, not for suspected lymphoma. If the site is not clearly stated, check documentation before assigning C83.75.
Do not use for
Do not use C83.75 for other non-Hodgkin lymphomas, unspecified lymphoma, or Burkitt lymphoma at a different nodal site. Check documentation if the record only says “lymphoma” or does not identify the inguinal or lower-limb nodes.
Coding tip
Match the lymphoma subtype and exact nodal location in the pathology or oncologist’s note before selecting this code.
