Similarly, the ICD-10-CM alphabetic index under the main term “ileus” has a subterm or essential modifier “postoperative” and points to code K91. 89 with a description of “other postprocedural complication and disorders of the digestive system” and a “use additional code” note.
Another risk is an anastomosis. This is a new connection created in your intestines and stomach during the bypass surgery that will not fully heal and will leak.

Postoperative paralytic ileus refers to obstipation and intolerance of oral intake due to nonmechanical factors that disrupt the normal coordinated propulsive motor activity of the gastrointestinal tract following abdominal or nonabdominal surgery [1-3].
Postoperative ileus is a common benign postoperative complication. Normal physiologic recovery should occur within 72 hours with supportive treatment. It is imperative to distinguish ileus from more severe or reversible problems such as mechanical obstruction.
The large intestine, or colon, absorbs water and uses strong, wave-like movements to push broken-down food and waste to your anus so you can poop. When your intestine stops making those wave-like movements for a while, it's called ileus.
An anastomosis is a surgical connection between two structures. It usually means a connection that is created between tubular structures, such as blood vessels or loops of intestine. For example, when part of an intestine is surgically removed, the two remaining ends are sewn or stapled together (anastomosed).
ICD-10-CM K91. 89 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 393 Other digestive system diagnoses with mcc.

Managing your intake of soluble vs. insoluble fibers can be a helpful way of reducing LARS symptom flare-ups.
Low Anterior Resection Syndrome is a series of ongoing life altering symptoms that individuals may experience after undergoing treatment and surgery for rectal cancer. It has been proven to be a prevalent problem for rectal cancer patients, in fact suggesting that all patients receiving a Low Anterior Resection should be screened for LARS - as noted in scientific literature:
Not everyone who has a low anterior resection experiences LARS, and incidence of symptoms are related to confluence of anatomy, radiation treatment sites, and surgical location.
If ICD-10 codes C25.4, C26.0, D13.7, D13.9 are submitted on the claim, the medical record must document that the patient’s diagnosis is VIPoma.
Billing and Coding articles provide guidance for the related Local Coverage Determination (LCD) and assist providers in submitting correct claims for payment. Billing and Coding articles typically include CPT/HCPCS procedure codes, ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes, as well as Bill Type, Revenue, and CPT/HCPCS Modifier codes. The code lists in the article help explain which services (procedures) the related LCD applies to, the diagnosis codes for which the service is covered, or for which the service is not considered reasonable and necessary and therefore not covered.
Use of these codes does not guarantee reimbursement. The patient’s medical record must document that the coverage criteria in this policy have been met.
