Fibroids ICD-10-CM Codes

What ICD-10 codes are used for fibroids?

Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas or myomas, are benign tumors originating from the uterus's smooth muscle layer. These growths can vary in size and location within the uterus. The ICD-10-CM classification system provides codes to specify the type and location of fibroids.

Here are some commonly used ICD-10-CM codes for fibroids:

• D25.0: Submucous leiomyoma of uterus - This is meant to be used if a patient is confirmed to have fibroids, specifically ones growing into the uterine cavity, just beneath the inner lining.
• D25.1: Intramural leiomyoma of uterus - This is meant to be used if a patient is confirmed to have fibroids, specifically ones growing within the muscular wall of the uterus.
• D25.2: Subserous leiomyoma of uterus - This is meant to be used if a patient is confirmed to have fibroids, specifically ones growing on the outer surface of the uterus.
• D25.9: Leiomyoma of uterus, unspecified - This is meant to be used if a patient is confirmed to have fibroids, but their specific location is not detailed or known at the moment.
