- C81.0A Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma, in remission
What has happened to this code
Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
- FY2012 Added to the draft code set draft Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma
Official coding rules
Published by CDC for FY2027. A rule attached to a category binds every code beneath it, so the rules inherited from this code's ancestors are shown with the code they come from.

Excludes1 - never coded here
- personal history of Hodgkin lymphoma (Z85.71)
Inherited from the C81-C96 section Malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissue (C81-C96)
Excludes2 - not included here
- Kaposi's sarcoma of lymph nodes (C46.3)
- secondary and unspecified neoplasm of lymph nodes (C77.-)
