D41 is a non-billable ICD-10-CM category code for neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary organs, so it cannot be submitted on claims. Use a more specific code from this category instead, such as D41.00, D41.01, D41.02, and D41.10.

Specific Coding for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary organsOverview

Non-specific codes like D41 require more characters. Use one of these billable codes instead:

  • D41.0 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of kidney

  • Use D41.00 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of unspecified kidney

  • Use D41.01 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of right kidney

  • Use D41.02 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of left kidney

  • D41.1 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of renal pelvis

  • Use D41.10 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of unspecified renal pelvis

  • Use D41.11 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of right renal pelvis

  • Use D41.12 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of left renal pelvis

  • D41.2 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of ureter

  • Use D41.20 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of unspecified ureter

  • Use D41.21 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of right ureter

  • Use D41.22 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of left ureter

  • Use D41.3 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urethra

  • Use D41.4 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of bladder

  • Use D41.8 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of other specified urinary organs

  • Use D41.9 for Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of unspecified urinary organ

Instructional NotesGuidance

Instructions from the official ICD-10-CM Tabular List that apply to D41: its own notes plus those printed at block D37-D48 and Chapter 2. A note printed at a category, block or chapter applies to every code under it.

Excludes1

Not coded here: the excluded code is never reported together with this one, unless the two conditions are unrelated.

From Block D37-D48 Neoplasms of uncertain behavior, polycythemia vera and myelodysplastic syndromes applies to 137 codes
  • neoplasms of unspecified behavior (D49.-)

Notes

General instructions on how these codes are used.

From Block D37-D48 Neoplasms of uncertain behavior, polycythemia vera and myelodysplastic syndromes applies to 137 codes
  • Categories D37-D44, and D48 classify by site neoplasms of uncertain behavior, i.e., histologic confirmation whether the neoplasm is malignant or benign cannot be made.
From Chapter 2 (C00-D49) Neoplasms applies to 1,730 codes
  • Functional activity
  • All neoplasms are classified in this chapter, whether they are functionally active or not. An additional code from Chapter 4 may be used, to identify functional activity associated with any neoplasm.
  • Morphology [Histology]
  • Chapter 2 classifies neoplasms primarily by site (topography), with broad groupings for behavior, malignant, in situ, benign, etc. The Table of Neoplasms should be used to identify the correct topography code. In a few cases, such as for malignant melanoma and certain neuroendocrine tumors, the morphology (histologic type) is included in the category and codes.
  • Primary malignant neoplasms overlapping site boundaries
  • A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere. For multiple neoplasms of the same site that are not contiguous, such as tumors in different quadrants of the same breast, codes for each site should be assigned.
  • Malignant neoplasm of ectopic tissue
  • Malignant neoplasms of ectopic tissue are to be coded to the site mentioned, e.g., ectopic pancreatic malignant neoplasms are coded to pancreas, unspecified (C25.9).

Questions About D41Overview

What is the ICD-10 code for neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary organs?

D41 is the ICD-10-CM category for neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary organs, but it is a non-billable header: claims need a more specific code from this category, listed on this page.

Is D41 (Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary organs) a billable code?

No. This is a category header that groups the codes for neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary organs, and headers cannot be submitted on claims. Claims for neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary organs need a more specific code from this category, such as D41.00, D41.01, and D41.02.

Can D41 be reported with a code from D49?

Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at block D37-D48, which applies to D41, lists "neoplasms of unspecified behavior (D49.-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
