ICD-10 code: K57. 92 Diverticulitis of intestine, part unspecified, without perforation, abscess or bleeding.
Diverticula usually develop when naturally weak places in your colon give way under pressure. This causes marble-sized pouches to protrude through the colon wall. Diverticulitis occurs when diverticula tear, resulting in inflammation, and in some cases, infection.
Jejunal diverticulosis refers to the clinical entity characterized by the presence of multiple sac-like mucosal herniations through weak points in the intestinal wall. 4. Small intestinal diverticula are far less common than colonic diverticula. The cause of this condition is not known.
Diverticulosis occurs when small, bulging pouches (diverticula) develop in your digestive tract. When one or more of these pouches become inflamed or infected, the condition is called diverticulitis.
The sigmoid colon is an “S” shaped portion of the large intestine that begins in front of the pelvic brim as a continuation of the descending colon and becomes the rectum at the level of the third sacral vertebrae.

Small-bowel pandiverticulosis—a potential source of recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding. Report of a case and review of the literature. Scand J Gastroenterol 1998;33:1321–1323. Acquired diverticulae of the jejunum and ileum are uncommon and usually asymptomatic in most patients.
A patient admitted with colon diverticulitis with abscess is assigned to codes 562.11, Diverticulitis of colon, and 569.5, Abscess of intestine (AHA Coding Clinic for ICD-9-CM, 1996, first quarter, pages 13-14).
Acute diverticulitis is inflammation due to micro-perforation of a diverticulum. The diverticulum is a sac-like protrusion of the colon wall. Diverticulitis can present in about 10% to 25% of patients with diverticulosis. Diverticulitis can be simple or uncomplicated and complicated.
Diverticula are small, bulging sacs or pouches that form on the inner wall of the intestine. Diverticulitis occurs when these pouches become inflamed or infected. Most often, these pouches are in the large intestine (colon).
Essential (primary) hypertension: I10 That code is I10, Essential (primary) hypertension. As in ICD-9, this code includes “high blood pressure” but does not include elevated blood pressure without a diagnosis of hypertension (that would be ICD-10 code R03. 0).

Approximate Synonyms. Diverticular disease of colon. Diverticulosis of cecum. Diverticulosis of colon. Diverticulosis of sigmoid.
Diverticulosis of sigmoid colon. Clinical Information. A pathological condition characterized by the presence of a number of colonic diverticula in the colon. Its pathogenesis is multifactorial, including colon aging, motor dysfunction, increases in intraluminal pressure, and lack of dietary fibers.
