2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code R22: Localized swelling, mass and lump of skin and subcutaneous tissue.
Edema is swelling of soft tissues due to increased interstitial fluid. The fluid is predominantly water, but protein and cell-rich fluid can accumulate if there is infection or lymphatic obstruction. Edema may be generalized or local (eg, limited to a single extremity or part of an extremity).
Leg swelling related to fluid buildup Leg swelling caused by the retention of fluid in leg tissues is known as peripheral edema. It can be caused by a problem with the venous circulation system, the lymphatic system or the kidneys.
Peripheral edema can poses a diagnostic dilemma to family physicians due to a wide range of underlying diseases. As discussed above in detail, the causes of edema may be due to a myriad of diagnoses, including heart, liver, renal, thyroid, and other vascular etiologies.
Lower extremity edema is the accumulation of fluid in the lower legs, which may or may not include the feet (pedal edema). It is typically caused by one of three mechanisms. The first is venous edema caused by increased capillary permeability, resulting in a fluid shift from the veins to the interstitial space.
Overview. Edema is swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in your body's tissues. Although edema can affect any part of your body, you may notice it more in your hands, arms, feet, ankles and legs.
ICD-10-CM Code for Edema, unspecified R60. 9.
ICD-10 code: R22. 2 Localized swelling, mass and lump, trunk.
42 Localized swelling, mass and lump, left lower limb.
Clinical Information. (eh-dee-ma) swelling caused by excess fluid in body tissues. Abnormal fluid accumulation in tissues or body cavities. Most cases of edema are present under the skin in subcutaneous tissue. Accumulation of an excessive amount of watery fluid in cells or intercellular tissues.
The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM R60.9 became effective on October 1, 2020.
Accumulation of an excessive amount of watery fluid in cells or intercellular tissues. Edema means swelling caused by fluid in your body's tissues. It usually occurs in the feet, ankles and legs, but it can involve your entire body. Causes of edema include.
R60.0 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of localized edema. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Peripheral edema is edema (accumulation of fluid causing swelling) in tissues perfused by the peripheral vascular system, usually in the lower limbs. In the most dependent parts of the body (those hanging distally), it may be called dependent edema.
