Paraspinal abscess is a collection of pus located around the spinal cord. This is usually seen as a complication of vertebral osteomyelitis and discitis (diskitis) but may be related to hematogenous seeding during bloodstream infection.
ICD-10 code L02. 212 for Cutaneous abscess of back [any part, except buttock] is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue .
L02. 91 - Cutaneous abscess, unspecified | ICD-10-CM.
Spinal cord abscess is the swelling and irritation (inflammation) and the collection of infected material (pus) and germs in or around the spinal cord.
The majority of the vertebral column movements are produced by an extensive set of muscles, that run all the way along the back of the spine. They're known collectively as the paraspinal muscles. The paraspinal muscles are also a component of the: Core Muscles; Back Muscles (minus psoas).
Paraspinal and epidural abscesses are rare conditions often diagnosed later in the disease process that can have significant morbidity and mortality. Predisposing risk factors include diabetes, human immunodeficiency virus, intravenous drug abuse, and previous history of spinal surgery or injection.
Description. The perivertebral space is situated posterior to the retropharyngeal space. The perivertebral space is subdivided into two compartments, the prevertebral and paraspinal portion, by the deep slip of the deep fascia that is inserted to the transverse processes.
L02. 31 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM L02.
Sacral epidural abscesses are rare infections, often managed with open surgery, especially in the presence of acute neurological symptoms. We report a novel approach for minimally invasive drainage of sacral epidural abscesses.

L02.212 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of cutaneous abscess of back [any part, except buttock]. The code L02.212 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.#N#The ICD-10-CM code L02.212 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like abscess of back, abscess of back, except buttock, abscess of flank, abscess of flank, cellulitis and abscess of abdominal wall , cellulitis and abscess of back, etc.
Bacteria, viruses, parasites and swallowed objects can all lead to abscesses. Skin abscesses are easy to detect. They are red, raised and painful. Abscesses inside your body may not be obvious and can damage organs, including the brain, lungs and others. Treatments include drainage and antibiotics.
You can get an abscess almost anywhere in your body. When an area of your body becomes infected, your body's immune system tries to fight the infection. White blood cells go to the infected area, collect within the damaged tissue, and cause inflammation. During this process, pus forms.
Paraspinal abscess is a collection of pus located around the spinal cord. This is usually seen as a complication of vertebral osteomyelitis and discitis (diskitis) but may be related to hematogenous seeding during bloodstream infection.
Diagnosis is typically made after the patient undergoes surgical drainage of the abscess. Infective material can be cultured to establish a diagnosis. Common laboratory findings include leukocytosis and elevation in inflammatory markers (sedimentation rate or C-reactive protein). Concomitant bloodstream infection may be present.
Vertebral osteomyelitis – patients have fever and back pain. Metastatic tumor to the spine – back pain is also present. Meningitis (eg, bacterial, fungal) – neurological signs may include altered mental status or seizures but should not usually present with signs associated with spinal cord compression.
Frequently, the location of the abscess is in the epidural space. The most common offending pathogens are gram-positive organisms, including Staphylococcus aureus. Gram-negative infections can occur and are often associated with ascending urinary sources.
Untreated, the patient's neurologic symptoms can worsen to the point of irreversible paralysis.
Patients may have acute (develops over hours) or subacute (develops over weeks to months) back pain. Fever may or may not be present. As the abscess forms, patients typically have focal and severe back pain. As the size of the abscess increases, it may impinge on the spinal cord, leading to signs of spinal cord compression, including motor weakness and sensory deficits. Untreated, the patient's neurologic symptoms can worsen to the point of irreversible paralysis.
