The ICD code K668 is used to code Pneumoperitoneum Pneumoperitoneum is pneumatosis (abnormal presence of air or other gas) in the peritoneal cavity, a potential space within the abdominal cavity.
A perforated viscus, also known as an intestinal or bowel perforation, is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the wall of the gastrointestinal tract ruptures and the enteric contents leak into the peritoneal cavity (e.g., the space between the abdominal wall and the internal organs), thereby causing severe ...
K63. 1 - Perforation of intestine (nontraumatic). ICD-10-CM.
If the perforation occurs in your bowel, it may be called a perforated bowel. If your GI tract is perforated, the contents may spill into your abdomen and cause peritonitis, an infection. Such an infection can lead to sepsis.
The causes of perforated viscus include trauma, bowel ischemia. Mesenteric ischemia can be either acute or chronic. Mesenteric Ischemia , infections. Chronic Granulomatous Disease , or ulcerative conditions, all of which ultimately lead to a full-thickness disruption of the intestinal wall.
Perforated hollow viscus is a life-threatening cause of abdominal pain and carries a mortality of 30-50%. This diagnosis is first suspected on through a careful history, a thorough examination, attention to abnormal vital signs, and a broad differential diagnosis in ill patients with abdominal pain.
The solid abdominal viscera (singular: viscus) is a collective term for those internal organs of the upper abdomen that are primarily solid in nature, namely the liver, pancreas, spleen, adrenals, and kidneys.
abdomenViscus: An internal organ of the body, specifically one within the chest (as the heart or lungs) or abdomen (as the liver, pancreas or intestines). "Viscus" is the Latin word for "an organ of the body." The plural of "viscus" is "viscera."
Perforation is a hole that develops through the wall of a body organ. This problem may occur in the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, or gallbladder.
Contained perforation occurs when the ulcer creates a full-thickness hole, but free leakage is prevented by contiguous organs such as the pancreas wall off the area.[5] In duodenal perforation, gastric acid juice initially leaks into the peritoneal cavity, leading to profound chemical peritonitis.
Introduction: Perforation peritonitis mostly results from the perforation of a diseased viscus. Other causes of perforation include abdominal trauma, ingestion of sharp foreign body and iatrogenic perforation. The diagnosis is mainly based on clinical grounds.
Common causes of perforation include trauma, instrumentation, inflammation, infection, malignancy, ischemia, and obstruction.
An ulcer can go through all the layers of the digestive tract and form a hole (perforation). This is called a perforated ulcer. A perforated ulcer lets food and digestive juices leak out of the digestive tract. This is a serious health problem that needs urgent medical attention.
K63.1 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of perforation of intestine (nontraumatic). The code K63.1 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
FY 2016 - New Code, effective from 10/1/2015 through 9/30/2016 (First year ICD-10-CM implemented into the HIPAA code set)
Pneumoperitoneum is pneumatosis (abnormal presence of air or other gas) in the peritoneal cavity, a potential space within the abdominal cavity. When present, it can often be seen on radiography, but small amounts are often missed, and CT scan is nowadays regarded as a criterion standard in the assessment of a pneumoperitoneum.

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 K66.8 and a single ICD9 code, 568.89 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
