ICD-10 Code C92 – Myeloid leukemia (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code C92 – Myeloid leukemia
What it is
C92 identifies myeloid leukemia, a group of malignant disorders arising from myeloid blood-forming cells. Use it when documentation states myeloid leukemia without a more specific subtype.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly recorded findings include abnormal white blood cell proliferation, anemia, fatigue, infections, bruising, or bleeding, but you should code from the documented diagnosis.
When to use this code
Use C92 when the provider documents myeloid leukemia and does not specify a more detailed ICD-10-CM code. It may also fit when the record confirms leukemia of myeloid origin but the exact subtype is not stated. Check documentation for acute, chronic, or other specified forms before assigning this code.
Do not use for
Do not use C92 for lymphoid leukemias or other non-myeloid hematologic malignancies. If the chart names a specific myeloid leukemia subtype, code that more precise diagnosis instead.
Coding tip
Review the pathology, oncology, and discharge documentation carefully so you capture the most specific leukemia type available.
