560.9ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 560.9 : Unspecified intestinal obstruction.
It makes up part of the long pathway that food takes through your body, called the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. When food leaves your stomach, it enters the small intestine, also called the small bowel. The small bowel connects to the large bowel, also called the large intestine or colon.
An obstruction in which two points along the course of a bowel are obstructed at a single location thus forming a closed loop. Patients present clinically with signs of obstruction: abdominal pain, nausea/vomiting, abdominal distension. Most often due to adhesions, a twist of the mesentery, or internal herniation.
However, closed loop obstructions are characterized by their complete nature and high morbidity and risk of death in case of delayed surgery [2]. In the colon, ischemic complications only occur on volvulus.
When your body heals small cuts (wounds), scar tissue forms. This can happen inside your intestine as well. These scars can build up and create partial or total intestinal blockages. Scarring can result from tears in your intestinal wall, belly (abdominal) or pelvic surgery, or infections.
A doctor's examination accompanied by blood tests and an x-ray or computed tomography (CT) scan can confirm the diagnosis. Most obstructions resolve by allowing the small bowel to rest and shrink back to its normal size, thus making the adhesions less problematic.
In small bowel obstruction, the pain tends to be colicky (cramping and intermittent) in nature, with spasms lasting a few minutes. The pain tends to be central and mid-abdominal. Vomiting may occur before constipation. In large bowel obstruction, the pain is felt lower in the abdomen and the spasms last longer.
