The ICD-10 code for Valinemia is E72.2. Valinemia is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the accumulation of the amino acid valine in the blood and tissues. It is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme valine transaminase. The ICD-9 code for Valinemia is 270.3. Valinemia can lead to symptoms such as developmental delay, intellectual disability, and seizures. Early diagnosis and management are important for individuals with Valinemia.
Valinemia is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the inability of the body to break down the amino acid valine. The correct ICD-10 code for Valinemia is E72.39. This code falls under the chapter "Endocrine, nutritional, and metabolic diseases" and specifically relates to "other disorders of amino-acid metabolism." The ICD-9 code for Valinemia is 270.6, which also falls under the category of "disorders of amino-acid metabolism."
Valinemia is a condition that affects the body's ability to metabolize valine, an essential amino acid. It can lead to symptoms such as developmental delay, intellectual disability, and seizures. Accurate coding of Valinemia using the appropriate ICD codes is crucial for proper medical recordkeeping, billing, and research purposes. It allows healthcare professionals and researchers to track the prevalence and incidence of the condition, monitor the outcomes of treatments, and study the overall impact of Valinemia on affected individuals and their families.
