ICD-10 and ICD-9 codes for Microvillus Inclusion Disease, with classification details for clinicians, coders and patients.
Microvillus Inclusion Disease (MVID) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the functioning of the small intestine. It is characterized by the presence of abnormal microvilli, which are tiny finger-like projections on the surface of intestinal cells that aid in nutrient absorption. MVID typically manifests in infancy with severe diarrhea, malabsorption, and failure to thrive.
In the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10), the specific code for Microvillus Inclusion Disease is K90.8. This code falls under the chapter on Diseases of the Digestive System (K00-K95), specifically in the section for Other Diseases of the Digestive System (K90-K95). K90.8 encompasses various other intestinal disorders that do not have specific codes assigned to them.
In the previous version of the classification, ICD-9, there was no specific code for Microvillus Inclusion Disease. However, a similar condition known as Congenital Enteropathy due to Enteropeptidase Deficiency was assigned the code 579.8. This code was located in the section for Other Disorders of Intestine (not elsewhere classified) (code range 570-579).
It is important to note that while ICD codes provide a standardized way to classify diseases for statistical and billing purposes, they do not encompass all possible conditions. Therefore, it is always advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
