Benign neoplasm of unspecified adrenal gland

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A noncancerous tumor of an adrenal gland when it is unclear which side is affected. The adrenal glands sit on top of the kidneys and produce hormones.

Coding Tips

  • •Use this code only when the specific side (right or left) of the adrenal gland is not documented; otherwise use D35.01 or D35.02
  • •Verify imaging reports or operative notes to determine laterality before defaulting to the unspecified code
