2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D27Benign neoplasm of ovary
D27 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for benign neoplasm of ovary, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as D27.0, D27.1, and D27.9.

The “use additional code” indicates that a secondary code could be used to further specify the patient’s condition. This note is not mandatory and is only used if enough information is available to assign an additional code.
A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.

Ovarian Cysts
The ovaries are part of the female reproductive system. They produce a woman's eggs and make female hormones. Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs in or on an ovary. They usually form during ovulation, when the ovary releases an egg. They are usually harmless and go away by themselves. Most women have them sometime during their lives.
