ICD-10 Code C83.7A – Burkitt lymphoma, in remission (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C83.7A – Burkitt lymphoma, in remission
What it is
C83.7A identifies a personal history of Burkitt lymphoma that is currently in remission. Use it when the patient’s record shows the lymphoma is inactive and no active disease is documented.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Burkitt lymphoma is an aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, so remission usually means prior disease with no current evidence of active lymphoma.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents Burkitt lymphoma as “in remission,” “complete remission,” or similar wording. It may also fit follow-up visits after treatment when there is no active disease noted. Check the chart for any mention of recurrence or persistent disease before assigning it.
Do not use for
Do not use it for active Burkitt lymphoma, suspected lymphoma, or unspecified non-Hodgkin lymphoma. If the documentation does not clearly state remission, check documentation.
Coding tip
Code from the provider’s exact remission language and confirm that active disease is not documented elsewhere in the encounter.
