In ICD-10-CM, diverticular disease of intestine, or diverticulitis is coded to K57. The codes include location (small, large or small and large intestine), with or without perforation or abscess, and with or without bleeding: K57. 00 Diverticulitis of small intestine with perforation and abscess without bleeding.
When you have acute diverticulitis, a perforated colon is not that unusual because diverticulitis causes tiny tears — perforations — in the colon walls. These tears can grow larger and become problematic. Colonic perforation can also be a life-threatening complication of recent colon surgery called anastomotic leakage.

Our physicians have used IDC-10 code F07. 81 as the primary diagnosis for patients presenting with post concussion syndrome.
The note in ICD-10 under codes B95-B97 states that 'these categories are provided for use as supplementary or additional codes to identify the infectious agent(s) in disease classified elsewhere', so you would not use B96. 81 as a primary diagnosis, but as an additional code with the disease listed first.
Diverticulosis occurs when small, bulging pouches (diverticula) develop in your digestive tract. When one or more of these pouches become inflamed or infected, the condition is called diverticulitis.
Perforation of inflamed sigmoid diverticula is a common complication of diverticular disease which may lead to the formation of a localised abscess.
Untreated diverticulitis can cause colonic perforation and may allow more inflammation and pressure to build in the colon walls. Another potential cause of Perforated Diverticulitis is a complication of recent colon surgery called an anastomotic leakage.
Constipation is common after surgery. Taking pain medications such as vicodin or percocet also cause the bowel to move more slowly. A stool softener, such as Colace, milk of magnesium, or prune juice may help. Diarrhea is also common after a colon resection.
In more severe diverticulitis, when a perforation or an abscess is suspected, you may experience significant abdominal pain, an inability to tolerate food, constipation, or fever and chills. In this situation, NYU Langone doctors may recommend hospitalization for treatment and monitoring.
For these patients, initial treatment involves controlling the infection with antibiotics and bowel rest, followed by excision of the diseased colon to remove the fistula source, often on an elective basis.
Your doctor can usually treat diverticulitis with a special diet, plenty of rest, and, in some cases, antibiotic medica- tions. Once treated, most people start feeling better within a few days. Approximately 20% of patients will have another flare-up, or recurrence. This usually happens within 5 years.
The primary symptoms of gastrointestinal perforation are severe abdominal pain and tenderness. The abdomen may also protrude or feel hard to the touch. If the hole is in a person's stomach or small intestine, the onset of pain is usually sudden, but if the hole is in the large bowel, the pain may come on gradually.

Symptoms include abdominal pain that may become worse with movement, fever and chills, bloating and gas, diarrhea or constipation, nausea (with possible vomiting), and loss of appetite. Documentation elements for diverticulitis are location (small intestine, large intestine, or small and large intestine), as well as any manifestations ...
Diverticulosis develops when diverticula (pouches) form in the wall of the large intestine or colon. Physicians suspect that diverticula form when high pressure inside the colon pushes against the weak spots in the colon wall. When feces are trapped in the diverticula, bacteria grow.
The ICD code K57 is used to code Diverticulitis. Diverticulitis is a common digestive disease which involves the formation of pouches (diverticula) within the bowel wall. This process is known as diverticulosis, and typically occurs within the large intestine, or colon, although it can occasionally occur in the small intestine as well.
Large bowel (sigmoid colon) showing multiple diverticula. The diverticula appear on either side of the longitudinal muscle bundle (taenium).
