Monoclonal gammopathies are conditions in which abnormal proteins are found in the blood. These proteins grow from a small number of plasma cells in the bone marrow. Plasma cells are a type of white blood cell.
Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is a condition in which an abnormal protein — known as monoclonal protein or M protein — is in your blood. This abnormal protein is formed within your bone marrow, the soft, blood-producing tissue that fills in the center of most of your bones.
D47. 2 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 D47. 2 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Light chain myeloma can be classified as lambda or kappa light chain myeloma, depending on which type the cancerous cells produce. These light chains can build up in the kidneys, nerves, or other organs and cause serious complications. These two types of proteins have different structures.
A kappa free light chain test is a quick blood test that measures certain proteins in your blood. High levels of these proteins may mean you have a plasma cell disorder. A healthcare provider might order a kappa free light chain test if you have symptoms such as bone pain or fatigue.

ICD-10-CM Code for Multiple myeloma C90. 0.
Diagnosing multiple myeloma includes blood work, a 24-hour urine collection, a bone marrow biopsy, imaging studies (such as x-rays, MRIs, PET scans) and bone density tests. It sounds like a lot (and it is!) but none are that invasive or painful, with the exception of the bone marrow biopsy, but even that isn't so bad.
In myeloma, all the abnormal plasma cells make the same antibody. Therefore, the myeloma can be classified by the type of light and heavy chains produced, such as IgG kappa, IgG lambda, IgA kappa, or IgA lambda, etc. The most common type of heavy chain produced in myeloma is IgG, followed by IgA and then IgD.

Once abnormal proteins are found in the blood, more testing is needed. A blood screening and sometimes a urine screening is recommended. This is often done with a lab test called electrophoresis. This test separates proteins based on their size and other factors. Depending on the results of those tests, more testing may be done.
The exact cause of MGUS is not known. Infection, immune system problems, and the environment may play a role. But experts have not found a clear link yet. Experts do know that the abnormal proteins are not caused by a certain diet or from eating dietary proteins.
Monoclonal gammopathies are conditions in which abnormal proteins are found in the blood. These proteins grow from a small number of plasma cells in the bone marrow. Plasma cells are a type of white blood cell. Their main job is to fight off infection. The most common condition linked with these abnormal proteins is monoclonal gammopathy ...
Symptoms of monoclonal gammopathies vary among these conditions, but can include: Anemia or low red blood cells counts. Lack of energy (fatigue) or tiredness. Weakness. Pain in the bones or soft tissues. Tingling or numbness in the feet or hands.
The most common condition linked with these abnormal proteins is monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). It is not cancer. But people with MGUS have a greater risk of getting serious diseases of the bone marrow and blood.
MGUS causes no symptoms. In fact, monoclonal protein in the blood is often found by accident when doing other routine blood work.
Because MGUS is not harmful, it doesn’ t need to be treated. A diagnosis of MGUS without any other symptoms usually does not call for more testing. But because MGUS may lead to a more serious condition, you’ll need checkups throughout your life. This usually includes regular physical exams and blood work. This will help find problems as early as possible.
The monoclonal gammopathies encompass a number of disorders characterized by the production of a monoclonal protein (M protein) by an abnormal clone of plasma cells or other lymphoid cells. Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is the most common of these disorders.
The serum free light-chain assay is also considered an essential part of the screening process to detect light-chain MGUS and light-chain myeloma. As many as 16 percent of myeloma patients secrete only light chains, which may not be identified on serum immunofixation. In general, a low kappa-lambda ratio ...
MGUS is present in 3 to 4 percent of the population over age 50 and is more common in older men, African-Americans and Africans. The overall risk of progression to myeloma and related disorders is less than or equal to 1 percent per year depending on the subtype of the M protein (higher risk with IgM than non-IgM and light-chain MGUS). ...
Tests in combination. The sensitivity of screening for M proteins ranges from 82 percent with serum protein electrophoresis alone to 93 percent with the addition of serum immunofixation and to 98 percent with the serum free light-chain assay. The latter can replace urine protein electrophoresis and immunofixation when screening for M protein, given its higher sensitivity. An important caveat is that urine dipstick testing does not detect urine light chains.
A low anion gap is not a major indicator of an M protein unless in a high concentration, in which case other manifestations would be present, such as renal failure, which would guide the diagnosis. Polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia as a cause of low anion gap is far more common than MGUS. Serum protein electrophoresis is an initial test used ...

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code D47.2 and a single ICD9 code, 273.1 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
