Pleural effusion in other conditions classified elsewhere. 2016 2017 2018 2019 Billable/Specific Code Manifestation Code. J91.8 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM J91.8 became effective on October 1, 2018.
I31.3 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 I31.3 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I31.3 - other international versions of ICD-10 I31.3 may differ. A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes.
I31.3 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of pericardial effusion (noninflammatory). A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. Pericardial effusion ("fluid around the heart") is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pericardial cavity.
Look also at ICD-10-CM code I30.9 for acute neoplastic pericardial effusion present on admission (POA) plus the C code for secondary malignancy POA and finally, pericardial tamponade, not POA, suggests Robert S. Gold, MD, CEO of DCBA, Inc., in Atlanta.
Pericardial effusion in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) occurs in 5% to 24% of patients at diagnosis. However, little is known about the incidence, clinical characteristics, and outcomes for these patients. Most cases are clinically silent, and the effusion resolves with treatment of the underlying malignancy.
ICD-10-CM Code for Pericardial effusion (noninflammatory) I31. 3.
A condition in which cancer causes extra fluid to collect inside the sac around the heart. The extra fluid causes pressure on the heart, which keeps it from pumping blood normally.
Pericardial effusion is an accumulation of fluid in the pericardium, the sac that holds your heart. When it happens quickly or involves a large amount of fluid, the excess fluid can take up too much space in the pericardium, compressing your heart and causing a life-threatening condition known as cardiac tamponade.
3 - Pericardial effusion (noninflammatory)
ICD-10-CM Code for Malignant pleural effusion J91. 0.
Among patients with acute pericarditis or pericardial effusions, cancers of the lung and breast and hematologic malignancies are diagnosed most frequently. Case reports describe pericarditis as an early manifestation of lymphoma, gastric cancer, or ovarian cancer.
If the tissue layers become inflamed, they rub against the heart and cause chest pain. If extra fluid builds up between the tissue layers, it's called pericardial effusion. Pericarditis is usually mild. It often goes away on its own or with rest and basic treatment.
Lung cancer is the most common cause of the malignant pericardial effusion. Trauma: Blunt, penetrating, and iatrogenic injury to the myocardium, aorta, or coronary vessels can lead to the accumulation of blood within the pericardial sac.
pleural effusion - what is the difference? A: Pericardial effusion is the term for a buildup of fluid around the heart. Pleural effusion is the term for a buildup of fluid around the lungs, or, more accurately, in the space between the lungs and the chest cavity.
Cardiac tamponade — which is sometimes called pericardial tamponade — happens when the pericardium fills with fluid (especially blood). Because the fluid has nowhere to go, your heart runs out of room and can't expand enough to fill effectively.
There is normally a small amount of fluid around the heart (small pericardial effusion). This is produced by the sac around the heart and is an important part of normal heart functioning. Excess fluid around the heart is known as a pericardial effusion.
I31.3 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of pericardial effusion (noninflammatory). A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Pericardial effusion ("fluid around the heart") is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pericardial cavity. Because of the limited amount of space in the pericardial cavity, fluid accumulation leads to an increased intrapericardial pressure which can negatively affect heart function.
A collection of fluid in the pleural cavity as a result of malignant disease. Malignant pleural effusion fluid often contains free-floating malignant cells.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J91.0 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Presence of fluid in the pleural cavity as a complication of malignant disease. Malignant pleural effusions often contain actual malignant cells.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J91.8 became effective on October 1, 2021.
J91.8 describes the manifestation of an underlying disease, not the disease itself.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM C88.4 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J90 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Presence of fluid in the pleural cavity resulting from excessive transudation or exudation from the pleural surfaces. It is a sign of disease and not a diagnosis in itself.
One of the causes of noninfectious pericarditis with effusion is a tumor, either a primary tumor (benign or malignant) of the pericardial site, or a tumor metastasizing to the pericardium (com monly carcinoma of the lung or breast and lymphomas). CDI Talk is offered for networking purposes.

A: J91.0 (Malignant pleural effusion) is a manifestation code and cannot be sequenced as the principal diagnosis, says Sharon Salinas, CCS, Health Information Management, at Barlow Respiratory Hospital in Los Angeles.
