A central venous catheter was placed and hemodialysis treatment was given. Final work-up revealed the cause of the acute kidney failure to be tumor lysis syndrome due to chemotherapy. 11 Case Study Coding Select the answer from the following choices: a.

Other significant problems include morbid obesity with a BMI of 39.8, Type II diabetes, and hypertension. Following the ORIF, the patient developed an acute venous thrombus in the left popliteal vein. This thrombus was successfully excised. With no further complications, the patient was discharged to home. 17 Case Study Coding Select the answer from the following choices: a , , V85.39, , 401.9; b , , V85.39, , 401.9, , E880.9, E849.0; 79.35, c , , , 401.9, , E880.9, E849.0; d , , V85.39, , 401.9, , E880.9, E849.0; 79.35, AHIMA 2009 Audio Seminar Series 9

Chronic & acute manifestations are of the same condition 2. Specific & nonspecific diagnosis codes are of the same condition 3. Codes for the same condition that cannot logically coexist 4. Codes for the same condition that are in anatomically proximal sites 5. Closely related conditions 20 AHIMA 2009 Audio Seminar Series 10
16 FY 2010 CC Excludes Example of a closely related condition: New MCC, Tumor lysis syndrome is closely related to MCC codes Acute kidney failure When either or are assigned as principal diagnoses the addition of the syndrome or the acute kidney failure will not be considered a MCC for MS-DRG grouping 21 FY 2010 CC Excludes An example of chronic and acute manifestations of the same condition: New CC, Acute venous embolism and thrombosis of deep veins of upper extremity is an acute manifestation of the same condition new CC Chronic venous embolism and thrombosis of deep vessels of proximal lower extremity. The same condition is the venous embolism and thrombosis which do not necessarily need to be of the same vessel and therefore will not be considered a CC for either PDX code. 22 AHIMA 2009 Audio Seminar Series 11
