ICD10 code of Cholesteatoma and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for Cholesteatoma? And the ICD9 code for Cholesteatoma?
Cholesteatoma is a condition characterized by the abnormal growth of skin cells in the middle ear, which can lead to hearing loss and other complications. In the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10), the code for cholesteatoma is H71.9. This code falls under the category of "Other and unspecified disorders of middle ear and mastoid," which encompasses various conditions affecting these areas.
In the previous edition of the classification system, ICD-9, cholesteatoma was classified under code 385.3. This code represented "Cholesteatoma of middle ear," providing a specific designation for the condition within the middle ear.
The purpose of these codes is to standardize the classification of diseases and medical conditions for statistical and reimbursement purposes. By assigning specific codes to each condition, healthcare professionals and researchers can accurately document and track the prevalence and impact of different diseases in populations.

The code of cholesteatoma is H71
This would have to be researched by the person having the need to know. There are varying types of C-tomas (dependant on location), and varying surgical procedures. I don't think there is one number.
