About N61.2

N61.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for granulomatous mastitis. It belongs to category N61 (inflammatory disorders of breast), block N60-N65 (disorders of breast) and chapter 14 (diseases of the genitourinary system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

Within N61 (inflammatory disorders of breast), N61.2 is specifically for granulomatous mastitis. Related codes cover mastitis without abscess (N61.0) and abscess of the breast and nipple (N61.1).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: N61.20 (unspecified breast), N61.21 (right breast), N61.22 (left breast) and N61.23 (bilateral breast).

It was added in FY2021, effective October 1, 2020.
