2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D29.32 – Benign neoplasm of left epididymis

What it is

D29.32 identifies a noncancerous growth arising in the left epididymis. Use it when documentation states a benign epididymal tumor on the left side.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Patients may have a palpable scrotal mass, local fullness, or incidental imaging findings, but the diagnosis should be confirmed as benign and left-sided.

When to use this code

Use D29.32 when the provider documents a benign neoplasm of the left epididymis, whether found on exam, ultrasound, or pathology. Code it only when the record clearly identifies the lesion as benign and specifically on the left. If the site or behavior is unclear, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for malignant epididymal tumors, nonspecific scrotal masses, or lesions documented only as cysts or inflammation. If the diagnosis is uncertain, check documentation.

Coding tip

Verify both laterality and benign behavior before assigning D29.32.
