The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
Why ICD-10 codes are important
ICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO). It contains codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases.

Cholelithiasis involves the presence of gallstones (see the image below), which are concretions that form in the biliary tract, usually in the gallbladder. Choledocholithiasis refers to the presence of one or more gallstones in the common bile duct (CBD). Treatment of gallstones depends on the stage of disease.
Choledocholithiasis is the presence of at least one gallstone in the common bile duct. The stone may be made up of bile pigments or calcium and cholesterol salts.
Cholelithiasis occurs when gallstones develop. If these gallstones block the bile duct, bile can build up in the gallbladder causing inflammation called cholecystitis. Cholelithiasis and cholecystitis both affect your gallbladder. Cholelithiasis occurs when gallstones develop.
Diagnosis of choledocholithiasis is suspected when an individual presents colicky pain in the right upper abdominal quadrant, along with intermittent episodes of jaundice due to the buildup of bilirubin in the blood.

[ kō′lĭ-sĭs′tō-lĭ-thī′ə-sĭs ] n. The presence of one or more gallstones in the gallbladder.
Scientists believe that cholesterol stones are caused by bile that contains: too much cholesterol. too much bilirubin. not enough bile salts.
Cholecystitis is an inflammation of the gallbladder wall, usually caused by obstruction of the bile ducts by gallstones, and cholangitis is inflammation of the bile ducts (Thomas, 2019). Biliary colic, cholecystitis and cholangitis occur as a result of gallstone obstruction within the biliary tree (Thomas, 2019).

This is the small tube that carries bile from the gallbladder to the intestine. Risk factors include a history of gallstones. However, choledocholithiasis can occur in people who have had their gallbladder removed.
The ICD code K80 is used to code Gallstone. A gallstone, also called a cholelith, is a stone formed within the gallbladder out of bile components. Lithiasis (stone formation) in the gallbladder is called cholelithiasis. Gallstones are formed in the gallbladder but may pass distally into other parts of the biliary tract such as the cystic duct, ...
