ICD-10-CM assumes a causal relationship and this is coded as hypertensive heart disease with CHF and an additional code for the specific type of heart failure. In this case, the PDX of hypertensive heart disease with CHF (I11.0) is reported as the PDX followed by the code for the heart failure (I50.9) Under the Category I50 in the ICD-10-CM ...

Acute cholecystitis is inflammation of the gallbladder. It usually happens when a gallstone blocks the cystic duct. Gallstones are small stones, usually made of cholesterol, that form in the gallbladder.
Chronic cholecystitis is swelling and irritation of the gallbladder that continues over time. The gallbladder is a sac located under the liver. It stores bile that is made in the liver. Bile helps with the digestion of fats in the small intestine.
Acute cholecystitis, the commonest complication of cholelithiasis, is a chemical inflammation usually requiring cystic duct obstruction and supersaturated bile. The treatment of this condition in the laparoscopic era is controversial.

The following are characteristics of the ICD-10-CM index: - Main terms are in bold type. - Subterms are indented under the main term. - Only the first four characters of some codes are given.
From there, bile moves down the common bile duct and enters your small intestine. Sometimes this process is inhibited and bile builds up inside your gallbladder, causing it to become larger and inflamed. This buildup can lead to the creation of gallstones, or gallbladder calculi.
Cholelithiasis with chronic cholecystitis without obstruction (K80. 10) is an example of a dual code.

The ICD code K81 is used to code Cholecystitis. Cholecystitis (Greek, -cholecyst, "gallbladder", combined with the suffix -itis, "inflammation") is inflammation of the gallbladder.
This blockage causes a buildup of bile in the gallbladder and increased pressure within the gallbladder, leading to right upper abdominal pain. Concentrated bile, pressure, and sometimes bacterial infection irritate and damage the gallbladder wall, causing inflammation and swelling of the gallbladder.
