ICD-10 Code D26.0 – Other benign neoplasm of cervix uteri (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D26.0 – Other benign neoplasm of cervix uteri
What it is
D26.0 identifies a noncancerous growth of the cervix uteri that is not classified elsewhere. Use it when the lesion is documented as benign and arises from the cervical tissue.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Benign cervical neoplasms may be found on pelvic exam, colposcopy, or pathology, and may be asymptomatic or associated with abnormal bleeding or a visible cervical lesion.
When to use this code
Use D26.0 when the provider documents a benign neoplasm of the cervix and does not specify a more exact benign cervical diagnosis. Apply it after biopsy or other evaluation confirms the lesion is nonmalignant. If the record only says “cervical mass” or “lesion,” check documentation before coding.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for malignant cervical tumors, dysplasia, or unspecified cervical abnormalities. If the documentation describes a polyp, cyst, or another named cervical condition, choose the specific code instead.
Coding tip
Verify the pathology or provider impression so you code a confirmed benign neoplasm, not a nonspecific cervical finding.
