D45 - Polycythemia vera. ICD-10-CM.
Polycythemia, also called erythrocytosis, refers to an increase in red blood cell mass, noted on laboratory evaluation as increased hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. Polycythemia vera is a subtype of polycythemia and is associated with the overproduction of all 3 cell lines.
(PAH-lee-sy-THEE-mee-uh VAYR-uh) A disease in which there are too many red blood cells in the bone marrow and blood, causing the blood to thicken. The number of white blood cells and platelets may also increase.
What is Polycythaemia (Rubra) Vera? Polycythaemia (Rubra) Vera, also known as primary polycythaemia vera, is a disorder where too many red cells are produced in the bone marrow, without any identifiable cause.
What causes polycythaemia?Apparent polycythaemia. "Apparent polycythaemia" is where your red cell count is normal, but you have a reduced amount of a fluid called plasma in your blood, making it thicker. ... Relative polycythaemia. ... Absolute polycythaemia. ... Polycythaemia vera (PV) ... Secondary polycythaemia.
Polycythemia vera is a type of chronic leukemia (blood cancer) that causes your bone marrow to produce too many red blood cells. It progresses very slowly and often isn't diagnosed until after the age of 60. Most people manage symptoms well for many years.
The most common causes of secondary polycythemia are:sleep apnea.smoking or lung disease.obesity.hypoventilation.Pickwickian syndrome.chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)diuretics.performance-enhancement drugs, including EPO, testosterone, and anabolic steroids.
Description. Polycythemia vera is a condition characterized by an increased number of red blood cells in the bloodstream. Affected individuals may also have excess white blood cells and blood clotting cells called platelets. These extra cells and platelets cause the blood to be thicker than normal.
The most common treatment for polychythemia vera is having frequent blood withdrawals, using a needle in a vein (phlebotomy). It's the same procedure used for donating blood. This decreases your blood volume and reduces the number of excess blood cells.
What causes polycythemia vera? Polycythemia vera is caused by a genetic change (mutation) that develops during your lifetime. It is not an inherited genetic disorder. In most cases it is not known why this happens.
Nearly all PV patients have a mutation called “JAK2V617F” (found in the JAK2 gene) in their blood-forming cells. This mutation is one of the ways that JAK (Janus kinase) pathway signaling can become dysregulated and cause the body to produce too many blood cells.
Erythrocytosis is sometimes referred to as polycythemia, but the conditions are slightly different: Erythrocytosis is an increase in RBCs relative to the volume of blood. Polycythemiais an increase in both RBC concentration and hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to the body's tissues.
Polycythemia vera is caused by a malignant change in the genetic material (DNA) within a single cell of the bone marrow (clonal disorder). Bone marrow is the soft, spongy material found inside bone where most blood cell production occurs. The underlying reason why this malignant change occurs is unknown.
Without treatment, polycythemia vera can be life-threatening. But proper medical care can help ease signs, symptoms and complications of this disease.
There's no cure for polycythemia vera. Treatment focuses on reducing your risk of complications. These treatments may also ease your symptoms.
In polycythemia, the levels of hemoglobin (Hgb), hematocrit (Hct), or the red blood cell (RBC) count may be elevated when measured in the complete blood count (CBC), as compared to normal. Hemoglobin levels greater than 16.5 g/dL (grams per deciliter) in women and greater than 18.5 g/dL in men suggest polycythemia.
Codes. D45 Polycythemia vera.
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as D45. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition. familial polycythemia (.
A chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by an increased red blood cell production. Excessive proliferation of the myeloid lineage is observed as well. The major symptoms are related to hypertension or to vascular abnormalities caused by the increased red cell mass. The cause is unknown.
A myeloproliferative disorder of unknown etiology, characterized by abnormal proliferation of all hematopoietic bone marrow elements and an absolute increase in red cell mass and total blood volume, associated frequently with splenomegaly, leukocytosis, and thrombocythemia.
Polycythemia (or Polycythaemia, see spelling differences) vera (PV, PCV) (also known as erythremia, primary polycythemia, Vaquez disease, Osler-Vaquez disease and polycythemia rubra vera) is a neoplasm in which the bone marrow makes too many red blood cells. It may also result in the overproduction of white blood cells and platelets.
D45 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of polycythemia vera. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Approximate Synonyms. Erythrocytosis. Erythrocytosis secondary to tobacco use. Erythrocytosis secondary to tobacco use or abuse. Polycythemia, secondary. Clinical Information. An abnormal increase of the red blood cell in the circulating blood. An increase in the total red cell mass of the blood.

The ICD10 code for the diagnosis "Polycythemia vera" is "D45". D45 is a VALID/BILLABLE ICD10 code, i.e it is valid for submission for HIPAA-covered transactions.
The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM D45 became effective on October 1, 2018.
The diagnosis requires integration of clinical, labor atory, and bone marrow histological features. Diagnosis of PV requires meeting either all 3 major criteria, or the first 2 major criteria and the minor criterion. Major criteria. 1.
1. Hemoglobin .16.5 g/dL in men, Hemoglobin .16.0 g/dL in women or, Hematocrit .49% in men, Hematocrit .48% in women or, increased red cell mass (RCM)
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 D24.9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
All neoplasms are classified in this chapter, whether they are functionally active or not. An additional code from Chapter 4 may be used, to identify functional activity associated with any neoplasm. Morphology [Histology] Chapter 2 classifies neoplasms primarily by site (topography), with broad groupings for behavior, malignant, in situ, benign, ...
The Table of Neoplasms should be used to identify the correct topography code. In a few cases, such as for malignant melanoma and certain neuroendocrine tumors, the morphology (histologic type) is included in the category and codes. Primary malignant neoplasms overlapping site boundaries.
For multiple neoplasms of the same site that are not contiguous, such as tumors in different quadrants of the same breast, codes for each site should be assigned. Malignant neoplasm of ectopic tissue. Malignant neoplasms of ectopic tissue are to be coded to the site mentioned, e.g., ectopic pancreatic malignant neoplasms are coded to pancreas, ...
