About D29.20
D29.20 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for benign neoplasm of unspecified testis. It belongs to category D29 (benign neoplasm of male genital organs), block D10-D36 (benign neoplasms, except benign neuroendocrine tumors) and chapter 2 (neoplasms). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Within D29.2, choose D29.20 (unspecified testis) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: right testis (D29.21) and left testis (D29.22).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 729 (Other Male Reproductive System Diagnoses with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.0544) and DRG 730 (Other Male Reproductive System Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6597), in MDC 12 (Diseases and Disorders of the Male Reproductive System), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
It is on the CMS list of diagnoses consistent only with male patients (the sex-conflict edit itself was retired in FY2025).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 222.0 (benign neoplasm of testis).
