Valid for SubmissionICD-10:J94.2Short Description:HemothoraxLong Description:Hemothorax
Hemopneumothorax most often occurs as a result of a wound to the chest, such as from a gunshot, stabbing, or broken rib. This is called traumatic hemopneumothorax. In very rare instances, the condition is caused by other medical conditions, like lung cancer, bleeding disorders, or rheumatoid arthritis.

Hemithorax: Half of the thorax or, more simply, one side of the chest.
Hemothorax often occurs with pneumothorax, which is excess air in the pleural cavity. Symptoms include chest pain and a rapid heart rate. Treatment involves placing a catheter through the ribs to drain the blood and remove air.
A hemothorax will have a similar presentation as a pneumothorax, with symptoms such as dyspnea, hypoxia, decreased breath sounds, and chest pain. A key clinical finding that separates these two is that a pneumothorax will have hyper-resonance to percussion, but a hemothorax will have a hypo-resonance to percussion.
Pneumothorax is when air collects in between the parietal and viscera pleurae resulting in lung collapse. It can happen secondary to trauma (traumatic pneumothorax). When mediastinal shifts accompany it, it is called a tension pneumothorax. This is a life-threatening emergency that needs urgent management.
ICD-10-CM Code for Primary spontaneous pneumothorax J93. 11.
A pneumothorax (noo-moe-THOR-aks) is a collapsed lung. A pneumothorax occurs when air leaks into the space between your lung and chest wall. This air pushes on the outside of your lung and makes it collapse. A pneumothorax can be a complete lung collapse or a collapse of only a portion of the lung.
What is spontaneous pneumothorax? A spontaneous pneumothorax is the sudden onset of a collapsed lung without any apparent cause, such as a traumatic injury to the chest or a known lung disease. A collapsed lung is caused by the collection of air in the space around the lungs.
