We present a measurement of the W boson mass using data corresponding to 4.3  fb(-1) of integrated luminosity collected with the D0 detector during Run II at the Fermilab Tevatron pp collider. With a sample of 1,677,394 W → eν candidate events, we measure M(W) = 80.367 ± 0.026  GeV. This result is combined with an earlier D0 result determined using an independent Run II data sample, corresponding to 1  fb(-1) of integrated luminosity, to yield M(W) = 80.375 ± 0.023  GeV.
