Perforation of tympanic membrane H72- >. ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H66.01 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code S09.2 "Includes" further defines, or give examples of, the content of the code or category. A temporary or persistent opening in the eardrum (tympanic membrane). Clinical signs depend on the size, location, and associated pathological condition.

H72.9 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM H72.9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
For such conditions, ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code.
Information: A marginal perforation is a perforation that has an area with no tympanic membrane between the perforation and the bony canal. Because of this, squamous epithelium may grow into to the middle ear cavity.
What is an eardrum (tympanic membrane) perforation? Tympanic membrane perforation, also known as a perforated eardrum, is a hole in the thin membrane that separates the ear canal from the middle ear.
Often, no specific treatment is needed. The ear should be kept dry; routine antibiotic ear drops are unnecessary. However, prophylaxis with oral broad-spectrum antibiotics or antibiotic ear drops is necessary if contaminants may have entered through the perforation as occurs in dirty injuries.
K63. 1 - Perforation of intestine (nontraumatic). ICD-10-CM.
The classification was according to the size of perforation: small perforation, <1 quadrants or maximum diameter <3. mm; middle perforation, >1 quadrants and <2 quadrants or maximum diameter between 3 and 5 mm; and large perforation, >2 quadrants or maximum diameter >5 mm.
The outcome may also be related to the cause, mechanism, treatment and complications associated with the injuries. Simple traumatic tympanic membrane perforation (TTMP) remains the most common type of trauma - induced otologic dysfunction.
Chronic otitis media — COM is diagnosed when there is a subacute or chronic tympanic membrane perforation which occurs in the setting of a chronic ear infection or recurrent infections. Benign COM is characterized by a tympanic membrane perforation without accompanying drainage.
An ear infection is the most common cause of a ruptured eardrum. This occurs when fluid collects in the middle ear, creating pressure that eventually leads to a burst eardrum.
Topical antibiotic drops are the first-line treatment for AOM with perforation (7).

Chronic or unspecified gastric ulcer with perforation K25. 5 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM K25. 5 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Perforated hollow viscus is characterized by loss of gastrointestinal wall integrity with subsequent leakage of enteric contents. Direct trauma or tissue ischemia and necrosis lead to full-thickness disruption of the gastrointestinal wall and perforation.
