2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D00.07Carcinoma in situ of tongue

AHRQ’s CCSR groups this code into broader clinical categories.

• Ankyloglossia

  a severe congenital restriction of tongue movement, resulting from fusion or adherence of the tongue to the floor of the mouth. in partial ankyloglossia (tongue-tie) the lingual frenum is abnormally short, or is attached too close to the tip of the tongue. omim: 106280

• Bluetongue

  a reovirus infection, chiefly of sheep, characterized by a swollen blue tongue, catarrhal inflammation of upper respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts, and often by inflammation of sensitive laminae of the feet and coronet.

• Body Piercing

  the perforation of an anatomical region for the wearing of jewelry.

• Electronic Nose

  a device used to detect airborne odors, gases, flavors, volatile substances or vapors.

• Fasciculation

  involuntary contraction of the muscle fibers innervated by a motor unit. fasciculations may be visualized as a muscle twitch or dimpling under the skin, but usually do not generate sufficient force to move a limb. they may represent a benign condition or occur as a manifestation of motor neuron disease or peripheral nervous system diseases. (adams et al., principles of neurology, 6th ed, p1294)

• Glossitis, Benign Migratory

  an idiopathic disorder of the tongue characterized by the loss of filiform papillae leaving reddened areas of circinate macules bound by a white band. the lesions heal, then others erupt.

• Medicine, Chinese Traditional

  a system of traditional medicine which is based on the beliefs and practices of the chinese culture.

• Oral Frenectomy

  surgical procedures to release or remove abnormally short or tightly attached frenum (e.g., lingual frenum or labial frenum) associated with a pathological condition (e.g., tongue tie and lip tie).

• Pentastomida

  a subclass of crustacea comprising the tongue worms which are obligatory parasites of reptiles, birds, and mammals including humans.

• Tongue

  a muscular organ in the mouth that is covered with pink tissue called mucosa, tiny bumps called papillae, and thousands of taste buds. the tongue is anchored to the mouth and is vital for chewing, swallowing, and for speech.

• Tongue Diseases

  diseases involving the tongue.

• Tongue Habits

  acquired responses regularly manifested by tongue movement or positioning.

• Tongue Neoplasms

  tumors or cancer of the tongue.

• Tongue, Fissured
