L98. 0 (Pyogenic granuloma)
ICD-10-CM Code for Granulomatous disorder of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, unspecified L92. 9.
Pyogenic granulomas are small, raised, and red bumps on the skin. The bumps have a smooth surface and may be moist. They bleed easily because of the high number of blood vessels at the site. It is a benign (noncancerous) growth. Pyogenic granulomas are skin lesions that can develop after an injury.

ICD-10 | Granuloma annulare (L92. 0)
A granuloma is a small area of inflammation. Granulomas are often found incidentally on an X-ray or other imaging test done for a different reason. Typically, granulomas are noncancerous (benign). Granulomas frequently occur in the lungs, but can occur in other parts of the body and head as well.
It causes bumps that form a rash on most of the body, including the trunk, arms and legs. The rash might cause discomfort or itchiness. Under the skin. A type that usually affects young children is called subcutaneous granuloma annulare. It produces small, firm lumps under the skin, instead of a rash.
The name pyogenic granuloma is actually inaccurate. Pyogenic means pus-producing, and a granuloma is a cluster of white blood cells reacting to infection, causing a lump. But pyogenic granulomas are rarely related to infection, and they don't generally contain white blood cells or pus.
The head, neck, upper trunk and hands and feet are the most commonly sites. Pyogenic granuloma can occur at any age, but is least common in the very young and the very old.

The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:
GRANULOMA PYOGENIC-. a disorder of the skin the oral mucosa and the gingiva that usually presents as a solitary polypoid capillary hemangioma often resulting from trauma. it is manifested as an inflammatory response with similar characteristics to those of a granuloma.
The General Equivalency Mapping (GEM) crosswalk indicates an approximate mapping between the ICD-10 code L98.0 its ICD-9 equivalent. The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 code and the ICD-9 code and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.

POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Multiple sinus tracts, one extending inferiorly about 7 × 3 cm in diameter, one extending to the right approximately 4 × 3 cm, and one 4 × 3 cm extending to the left of 4 × 3 cm.
SURGICAL FINDINGS: As above, plus (benign) granulation tissue present in a capsule of multiple sinus tracts. Sinus tracts measured a total of about 15 × 8 cm in their total dimensions.
ICD-10 really doesn't use the term "sinus," but kicks it over to Fistula instead. Fistulas don't just "happen" by themselves, but arise from some other tissue disease/disorder. In Orthopedics, this usually means bone, joint, bursa, muscle, tendon, etc., and is usually the result of a chronic process, which sooner or later becomes contaminated, ...
If it originates from bone, then there is probably some element of Chronic Osteomyelitis such that M86.4: Osteomyelitis, Chronic, with Draining Sinus (Fistula) would apply. If it originates from within a joint, then M25.1: Joint Fistula would apply.
