Code Classification

  • Neoplasms
    (C00–D49)
    • Neoplasms of uncertain behavior, polycythemia vera and myelodysplastic syndromes
      (D37-D48)
      • Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary organs

D41.4 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of neoplasm of uncertain behavior of bladder. The code is valid during the current fiscal year for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions from October 01, 2023 through September 30, 2024.

The following anatomical sites found in the Table of Neoplasms reference this diagnosis code given the correct histological behavior: Neoplasm, neoplastic bladder (urinary) ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bladder (urinary) dome ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bladder (urinary) neck ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bladder (urinary) orifice ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bladder (urinary) orifice ureteric ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bladder (urinary) orifice urethral ; Neoplasm, neoplastic bladder (urinary) sphincter ; etc

Approximate Synonyms

The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:

  • Bladder polyp
  • Neoplasm of anterior wall of urinary bladder

  • Neoplasm of uncertain behavior of urinary bladder neck
  • Neoplasm of urachus
  • Neoplasm of ureteric orifice of urinary bladder
  • Neoplasm of urinary bladder neck

Clinical Classification

Clinical Information

  • 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.

Index to Diseases and Injuries References

The following annotation back-references for this diagnosis code are found in the injuries and diseases index. The Index to Diseases and Injuries is an alphabetical listing of medical terms, with each term mapped to one or more ICD-10-CM code(s).

Table of Neoplasms

This code is referenced in the table of neoplasms by anatomical site. For each site there are six possible code numbers according to whether the neoplasm in question is malignant, benign, in situ, of uncertain behavior, or of unspecified nature. The description of the neoplasm will often indicate which of the six columns is appropriate.

Where such descriptors are not present, the remainder of the Index should be consulted where guidance is given to the appropriate column for each morphological (histological) variety listed. However, the guidance in the Index can be overridden if one of the descriptors mentioned above is present.

Patient Education


Bladder Diseases

The bladder is a hollow organ in your lower abdomen that stores urine. Many conditions can affect your bladder. Some common ones are:

  • Cystitis - inflammation of the bladder, often from an infection
  • Urinary incontinence - loss of bladder control
  • Overactive bladder - a condition in which the bladder squeezes urine out at the wrong time
  • Interstitial cystitis - a chronic problem that causes bladder pain and frequent, urgent urination
  • Bladder cancer

Doctors diagnose bladder diseases using different tests. These include urine tests, x-rays, and an examination of the bladder wall with a scope called a cystoscope. Treatment depends on the cause of the problem. It may include medicines and, in severe cases, surgery.

Footnotes

[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
