ICD-10-CM Code Q33.2 Sequestration of lung. Q33.2 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of sequestration of lung. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
Sequestration of lung. A rare congenital abnormality of the lungs. It consists of a mass of lung parenchyma that does not communicate with the bronchial tree and receives its blood supply from the systemic circulation instead of the pulmonary circulation.
Other disorders of lung. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM J98.4 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of J98.4 - other international versions of ICD-10 J98.4 may differ.

Bronchopulmonary sequestration, also known as BPS or pulmonary sequestration, is a rare birth defect in which an abnormal mass of nonfunctioning lung tissue forms during prenatal development. It can form outside (extralobar) or inside (intralobar) the lungs, but is not connected directly to the airways.
Pulmonary sequestration can be divided into two distinct groups based on the relationship of the aberrant segmental lung tissue to the pleura:intralobar sequestration (ILS) accounts for the majority (75-85% of all sequestrations 4,5,7) ... extralobar sequestration (ELS) less common (15-25% of all sequestrations 4,5,7)
However, the gold standard for identifying the pulmonary sequestration recently is CT/MR angiography as it confirms the anatomy, identifies the anomalous systemic arterial supply, and shows the venous drainage [5].
Diagnosis. Pulmonary sequestrations are diagnosed with a prenatal ultrasound showing a mass in the chest of the fetus. The mass may displace the heart from its normal position or push the diaphragm downward, but the key feature of a sequestration is the artery leading from the cystic mass directly to the aorta.
While it is not in itself a life-threatening condition, a pulmonary sequestration can cause health complications including cardiovascular problems, long-term infections like tuberculosis, and bronchial cancer. It could be fatal if blood vessels in the lung begin to hemorrhage.
Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital (present from birth) malformation where non-functioning lung tissue is separated from the rest of the lung and supplied with blood from an unusual source, often an artery from systemic circulation.
Abstract. Intralobar pulmonary sequestration is characterized by the presence of nonfunctional parenchymal lung tissue, receiving systemic arterial blood supply. It lacks normal communication with tracheobronchial tree. Failure to diagnose and treat this condition can lead to recurrent pneumonia and fatal hemoptysis.
If the CPAM grows, which will occur in a small number of cases, it can cause increasing problems for you and/or the baby, including the development of hydrops. Most lesions will either stay the same size or actually decrease in size or disappear as the pregnancy progresses.
Resorption atelectasis is the most common mechanism of volume loss and results from obstruction in airflow somewhere between the trachea and the alveoli.
What causes pulmonary emphysema?Smoking (the main cause)Exposure to air pollution, such as chemical fumes, dust, and other substances.Irritating fumes and dusts at work.A rare, inherited form of the disease called alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency-related pulmonary emphysema or early onset pulmonary emphysema.
Abstract. Intralobar pulmonary sequestration is characterized by the presence of nonfunctional parenchymal lung tissue, receiving systemic arterial blood supply. It lacks normal communication with tracheobronchial tree. Failure to diagnose and treat this condition can lead to recurrent pneumonia and fatal hemoptysis.
Congenital lobar emphysema (CLE), also known as congenital alveolar overdistension, is a developmental anomaly of the lower respiratory tract that is characterized by hyperinflation of one or more of the pulmonary lobes [1,2].
Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is a benign lung lesion that appears before birth as a cyst or mass in the chest. It is made up of abnormal lung tissue that does not function properly, but continues to grow. CCAM is also frequently referred to as a congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM).
Sequester: 1. In medicine, to set apart, detach or separate a small portion of tissue from the rest. May be naturally occurring or iatrogenic. 2. In bone, for a piece of dead bone to separate from the sound bone.
Q33.2 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of sequestration of lung. The code Q33.2 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.#N#The ICD-10-CM code Q33.2 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like congenital sequestration of lung, extralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration, extrapulmonary subpleural pulmonary sequestration or intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration. The code is exempt from present on admission (POA) reporting for inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals.
FY 2016 - New Code, effective from 10/1/2015 through 9/30/2016 (First year ICD-10-CM implemented into the HIPAA code set)
The term lung disease refers to many disorders affecting the lungs, such as asthma, COPD, infections like influenza, pneumonia and tuberculosis, lung cancer, and many other breathing problems. Some lung diseases can lead to respiratory failure.
Q33.2 is exempt from POA reporting - The Present on Admission (POA) indicator is used for diagnosis codes included in claims involving inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals. POA indicators must be reported to CMS on each claim to facilitate the grouping of diagnoses codes into the proper Diagnostic Related Groups (DRG). CMS publishes a listing of specific diagnosis codes that are exempt from the POA reporting requirement. Review other POA exempt codes here.
The ICD code Q332 is used to code Pulmonary sequestration. A pulmonary sequestration (bronchopulmonary sequestration or cystic lung lesion), is a medical condition wherein a piece of tissue that ultimately develops into lung tissue is not attached to the pulmonary arterial blood supply, as is the case in normally developing lung.
Q33.2 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of sequestration of lung. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
This "Present On Admission" ( POA) indicator is recorded on CMS form 4010A.
"Patient with pulmonary sequestration has a first order feeder artery coming of the descending thoracic aorta at T8.
