ICD-10 block
T80–T88 Complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified
The block T80–T88 of ICD-10 is titled “Complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified”. It is part of Chapter XIX, Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes, and holds 9 groups.
What T80–T88 excludes
Conditions that look similar but belong under another code.
- burns and corrosions from local applications and irradiation T20-T32
- complications of surgical procedures during pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium O00-O99
- poisoning and toxic effects of drugs and chemicals T36-T65
- specified complications classified elsewhere, such as:
- cerebrospinal fluid leak from spinal puncture G97.0
- colostomy malfunction K91.4
- disorders of fluid and electrolyte balance E86-E87
- functional disturbances following cardiac surgery I97.0-I97.1
- postgastric surgery syndromes K91.1
- postlaminectomy syndrome NEC M96.1
- postmastectomy lymphoedema syndrome I97.2
- postsurgical blind-loop syndrome K91.2
Coding notes
- Use additional external cause code (Chapter XX), if desired, to identify devices involved and details of circumstances.
- Use additional code (B95-B98), if desired, to identify infectious agent.
