| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016

C64.1 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of malignant neoplasm of right kidney, except renal pelvis. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code C64 is used to code Renal cell carcinoma

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC, also known as hypernephroma, Grawitz tumor, renal adenocarcinoma) is a kidney cancer that originates in the lining of the proximal convoluted tubule, a part of the very small tubes in the kidney that transport waste molecules from the blood to the urine. RCC is the most common type of kidney cancer in adults, responsible for approximately 90-95% of cases.

Equivalent ICD-9 Code GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS (GEM)

Malignant neoplasm of kidney, except pelvis (approximate match)

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code C64.1 and a single ICD9 code, 189.0 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
