Bilateral non-palpable testicles

This code signifies the absence of both testicles within the scrotal sac, where they cannot be felt upon physical examination. It indicates a bilateral cryptorchidism or anorchia that is not palpable.

Apply this code when documentation explicitly states "bilateral non-palpable testicles" or "bilateral undescended testicles, not palpable." This is typically identified during a pediatric examination or workup for infertility.

• Differentiate from unilateral non-palpable testicle (R39.83) or palpable undescended testicle (Q53.1x, Q53.2x).
• Ensure the documentation specifies "bilateral" and "non-palpable" to support this code.
• Consider sequencing with congenital anomaly codes (Q53.xx) if the condition is confirmed as congenital cryptorchidism.
