The alphabetic index in ICD-10 directs you from 'myelolipoma' to 'lipoma', which classifies to D17. Since the adrenal glands are retroperitoneal, D17. 79 is the most correct code, in my opinion.

Adrenal myelolipoma is a benign (noncancerous) tumor of the adrenal gland, mostly composed of fat and bone marrow elements.
Primary aldosteronism (also called Conn's syndrome) is a rare condition caused by overproduction of the hormone aldosterone that controls sodium and potassium in the blood. The condition is treated with medications and lifestyle changes to control blood pressure, and in some cases surgery.
Primary aldosteronism (hyperaldosteronism) is a condition that occurs when the adrenal glands produce too much aldosterone, the hormone responsible for balancing potassium and sodium in the body.
Hyperaldosteronism is a disorder in which the adrenal gland releases too much of the hormone aldosterone into the blood.
Secondary hyperaldosteronism is a collective term for a diverse group of disorders characterized by physiologic activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (R-A-A) axis as a homeostatic mechanism designed to maintain serum electrolyte concentrations or fluid volume.
Hyperaldosteronism is a condition in which one or both adrenal glands produce too much of the hormone aldosterone. This can lower potassium levels, which can cause weakness and muscle spasms. Hyperaldosteronism can be treated with medication, or if necessary, surgery.
ASSAYSDifferentiating between the different causes of hypoaldosteronism is done by measurement of the plasma renin activity (PRA), serum aldosterone, and serum cortisol.The PRA is measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA) for angiotensin I after plasma incubation at 37 degrees Celsius.More items...•
Primary aldosteronism, also known as primary hyperaldosteronism or Conn's syndrome, is excess production of the hormone aldosterone by the adrenal glands resulting in low renin levels. Often it produces few symptoms. Most people have high blood pressure which may cause poor vision or headaches.
A Code Also note indicates that two or more codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but the order of codes is at the coder's discretion. Code order depends on the severity of the conditions and the reason for the encounter.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 255.12 was previously used, E26.01 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
An endocrine disorder characterized by excessive production of aldosterone by the adrenal glands. Causes include adrenal gland adenoma and adrenal gland hyperplasia. The overproduction of aldosterone results in sodium and water retention and hypokalemia. Patients present with high blood pressure, muscle weakness, and headache.
Primary hyperaldosteronism caused by the excess production of aldosterone by an adenoma of the zona glomerulosa or conn adenoma.
Surgery or medicines can treat many adrenal gland disorders. ICD-10-CM E27.9 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group (s) (MS-DRG v38.0): 643 Endocrine disorders with mcc.
Pathological processes of the adrenal glands. Your adrenal, or suprarenal, glands are located on the top of each kidney.
