Duodenal ulcer, unspecified as acute or chronic, without hemorrhage or perforation. K26. 9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Gastritis is inflammation of your stomach lining. Duodenitis is inflammation of the duodenum. This is the first part of the small intestine, which is located just below your stomach. Both gastritis and duodenitis have the same causes and treatments. Both conditions may occur in men and women of all ages.
70 Gastritis, unspecified, without bleeding.
Duodenitis is an intestinal condition caused by inflammation in your duodenum lining. It can sometimes happen along with gastritis, which is inflammation in your stomach lining.
For example, the most common cause of duodenitis is as a result of the presence of the Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) bacteria. This bacteria disrupts the mucus barrier that protects the sensitive lining of the duodenum from stomach acid. If bacteria breaks down this protective covering, inflammation can develop.
(DOO-ah-DEE-num) The first part of the small intestine. It connects to the stomach. The duodenum helps to further digest food coming from the stomach. It absorbs nutrients (vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats, proteins) and water from food so they can be used by the body.
The note in ICD-10 under codes B95-B97 states that 'these categories are provided for use as supplementary or additional codes to identify the infectious agent(s) in disease classified elsewhere', so you would not use B96. 81 as a primary diagnosis, but as an additional code with the disease listed first.

Duodenitis is common; it is seen in about 10% of asymptomatic patients. Inflammation of the duodenum is related to a variety of causes. Many patients have Helicobacter pylori gastritis.
