About C68

C68 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for malignant neoplasm of other and unspecified urinary organs. It belongs to block C64-C68 (malignant neoplasms of urinary tract) and chapter 2 (neoplasms). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: C68.0 (urethra), C68.1 (glands), C68.8 (organs) and C68.9 (unspecified).

Don't report C68 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: malignant neoplasm of female genitourinary tract NOS (C57.9) and malignant neoplasm of male genitourinary tract NOS (C63.9).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
