ICD10 code of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for Familial Adenomatous Polyposis? And the ICD9 code for Familial Adenomatous Polyposis?
Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary disorder characterized by the development of numerous polyps in the colon and rectum. These polyps have the potential to become cancerous if left untreated. To classify this condition, medical professionals utilize a coding system known as the International Classification of Diseases (ICD). The ICD system is used to standardize the classification and coding of diseases, injuries, and other health-related conditions.
The ICD10 code for Familial Adenomatous Polyposis is "D12.6." This code falls under the category of "Benign neoplasm of colon, rectum, anus, and anal canal." The code "D12" represents "Benign neoplasm of colon, rectum, anus, and anal canal," and the ".6" indicates that it specifically refers to Familial Adenomatous Polyposis.
In contrast, the ICD9 code for Familial Adenomatous Polyposis is "211.3." It falls under the category of "Benign neoplasm of colon, rectum, anus, and anal canal." The code "211" represents "Benign neoplasms of the digestive system," and the ".3" indicates that it specifically refers to Familial Adenomatous Polyposis.
These codes are crucial for accurate medical record keeping, billing, and statistical purposes. They allow healthcare providers and researchers to identify and track specific conditions, facilitating effective treatment planning, monitoring, and epidemiological studies.
