Benign neoplasm of urinary organs (D30)

The ICD-10 code D30 category covers benign neoplasms of urinary organs, identifying non-cancerous tumors found within parts of the urinary system like the kidney, ureter, bladder, and urethra. These codes specify the tumor’s precise location for accurate medical documentation.

This section includes subcodes such as D30.0 for benign kidney tumors (including oncocytomas and cortical adenomas), D30.1 for benign neoplasms of the renal pelvis (also called benign papillomas of the renal pelvis), D30.2 for tumors of the ureter, and D30.3 that addresses benign bladder tumors, such as inverted papillomas. Synonyms like “benign tumor of renal parenchyma” or “benign papilloma of urinary bladder” help medical coders match clinical descriptions to the most accurate ICD-10 code for benign urinary organ tumors. Codes like D30.9 cover unspecified benign neoplasms of the urinary system when the exact site is not detailed. Using the ICD-10 code for benign neoplasm of urinary organs ensures precise reporting of non-malignant tumors in urologic practice and medical records.

Clinical Terms

The following clinical terms provide additional context, helping users better understand the clinical background and common associations for each diagnosis listed in this section. Including related terms alongside ICD-10-CM codes supports coders, billers, and healthcare professionals in improving accuracy, enhancing documentation, and facilitating research or patient education.

Urachus

An embryonic structure originating from the ALLANTOIS. It is a canal connecting the fetal URINARY BLADDER and the UMBILICUS. It is normally converted into a fibrous cord postnatally. When the canal fails to be filled and remains open (patent urachus), urine leaks through the umbilicus.
