Abstract. Soft-tissue hematomas are a common clinical entity often associated with trauma, surgery, and bleeding disorders. In the majority of cases, soft-tissue hematomas acutely appear and spontaneously resolve, but sometimes, they present as swellings that slowly expand and progressively increase with time.
Organized hematoma is characterized pathologically by a mixture of bleeding, dilated vessels, hemorrhage, fibrin exudation, fibrosis, hyalinization, and neovascularization. CT and MRI show heterogeneous findings reflecting a mixture of these pathological entities.
What is a hematoma? A hematoma is the result of a traumatic injury to your skin or the tissues underneath your skin. When blood vessels under your skin are damaged and leak, the blood pools and results in a bruise. A hematoma forms as your blood clots, resulting in swelling and pain.
Postoperative hypothyroidism is secondary to thyroidectomy, and the incidence varies, with a reported range between 14% and 75%. This may be related to the amount of thyroid removed, the experience of the surgeon, age of patient, the function of remaining thyroid, and duration of postoperative observation.
Radioactive iodine therapy is usually planned for a few weeks (14 days or so) after thyroid surgery. The swelling that occurs after surgery can affect how well blood flows to that part of your neck, and good blood circulation is necessary to get as much radioactive iodine as possible to any remaining thyroid cells.

If they are doing it in the office and it does not require a return trip to the OR, then it's part of CMS's global surgical package.
Also, it's a good idea to check all of your payors' surgical package guidelines. Most of them are published on their website .... and most ARE following CMS guidelines.
But then there is this following statement, in the manual, and according to the doctor and his wife, the hematoma is not part of normal recovery from surgery.
It is of note that nearly 20% of wound hematomas occurred ≥3 days post-thyroidectomy. Most previous studies reported only early-phase wound hematomas that developed within 24 h following thyroidectomy, with few studies discussing longer times. 4,7,9,13,14 Our results indicated that clinicians should be aware of the probability of late-phase wound hematoma occurring ≥3 days post-thyroidectomy.
According to a previous study, known causes of post-thyroidectomy hematoma include slipping of ligatures on major vessels, reopening of cauterized veins, retching and vomiting, Valsalva maneuver, increased blood pressure, and continuous exudation from the original thyroid location, in the postoperative period. 17.
When severe hematoma with rapid mucosal edema and upper airway swelling is detected, tracheotomy or intubation would generally be the first-choice emergency treatment, rather than surgery. In fact, the present study showed that only 399 of 920 patients with wound hematoma received surgery for the hematoma.
The primary outcome was wound hematoma requiring tracheotomy, intubation, or surgical removal during the initial hospitalization or at readmission. The interval (days) between thyroidectomy and these procedures was calculated.
Previous studies revealed that surgery for large lesions, 5,8,16 bilateral thyroidectomy, 5 inflammatory thyroid conditions, 1 and surgery for Graves disease 8,15 had a negative impact on postsurgical hematoma formation. Our study identified that surgery for Graves disease, total thyroidectomy (benign or malignant), thyroidectomy for malignant tumor, and thyroidectomy with neck dissection were independent risk factors for wound hematoma requiring early intervention. These results are biologically plausible for 2 reasons. First, compared with unilateral or partial thyroidectomy, total thyroidectomy usually leaves a large dead space after surgery. Thyroidectomy with neck dissection requires more complex procedures and a wider surgical area. These conditions may promote postsurgical exudation and hematoma formation. Second, thyroid parenchyma in patients with Graves disease is known to have increased vascularity, which is considered a risk factor for postprocedural bleeding. According to a previous study, known causes of post-thyroidectomy hematoma include slipping of ligatures on major vessels, reopening of cauterized veins, retching and vomiting, Valsalva maneuver, increased blood pressure, and continuous exudation from the original thyroid location, in the postoperative period. 17

Thyroidectomy is generally safe and commonly performed for benign or malignant tumors and Graves disease and in the United States, short-stay thyroidectomy on an outpatient basis is increasingly common. 1–3 A potentially devastating early complication after thyroidectomy is the formation of a neck hematoma resulting in airway obstruction. Acute airway distress such as this deserves special attention because it is unpredictable and potentially lethal unless promptly evaluated and relieved emergently with surgical procedures. However, concern remains regarding the time interval from initial thyroidectomy to the onset of hematoma in light of the safety of short-stay thyroidectomy.
Short bowel syndrome (SBS, also short gut syndrome or simply short gut) is a malabsorption disorder caused by the surgical removal of the small intestine, or rarely due to the complete dysfunction of a large segment of bowel. Most cases are acquired, although some children are born with a congenital short bowel.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 579.3 was previously used, K91.2 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
