MEDICAL CODING IN CALICUT

  B33.1  (ROSS RIVER DISEASE)                                          Ross River virus disease  can  cause joint inflammation and pain, fatigue and muscle aches . Many infected people also develop a rash of variable appearance. Most people recover completely within 3 to 6 months, although some people have intermittent symptoms for a year or more. SYMPTOMS lethargy or fatigue muscle aches and pains rash of variable appearance on the trunk and limbs lymph node enlargement especially in the groin or armpit headaches fever.                        Most people with Ross River virus disease recover completely within 3 to 6 months. Current knowledge suggests that the body builds an immune response to the virus, which is likely to protect you against the disease for the rest of your life.   A general fe...

  E74.03  (CORI DISEASE) Glycogen storage disease type III (also known as GSDIII or Cori disease) is an inherited disorder caused by the buildup of a complex sugar called glycogen in the body's cells. The accumulated glycogen is structurally abnormal and impairs the function of certain organs and tissues, especially the liver and muscles Glycogen storage disease  type III (also known as GSDIII or Cori disease) is an inherited disorder caused by the buildup of a complex sugar called glycogen in the body's cells. The accumulated glycogen is structurally abnormal and impairs the function of certain organs and tissues, especially the liver and muscles. SYMPTOMS Not growing fast enough. Not feeling comfortable in hot weather (heat intolerance) Bruising too easily. Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) An enlarged liver. A swollen belly. Weak muscles (low muscle tone) Muscle pain and cramping during exercise. Type I - Von Gierke Disease Enlarged liver and kidneys Low blood s...

    E75.23  (KRABBE DISEASE)                                              Krabbe (KRAH-buh) disease is  an inherited disorder that destroys the protective coating (myelin) of nerve cells in the brain and throughout the nervous system . In most cases, signs and symptoms of Krabbe disease develop in babies before 6 months of age, and the disease usually results in death by age 2 SYMPTOMS Feeding difficulties Unexplained crying Extreme irritability Fever with no sign of infection Declines in alertness Delays in typical developmental milestones Muscle spasms Loss of head control Frequent vomiting E75.23  is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

   E74.01  (VON GIERKE DISEASE)                                              Von Gierke disease  is  a condition in which the body cannot break down glycogen . Glycogen is a form of sugar (glucose) that is stored in the liver and muscles. It is normally broken down into glucose to give you more energy when you need it. Von Gierke disease is also called Type I glycogen storage disease.  Definitive diagnosis of Von Gierke Disease is by liver biopsy (examination of liver tissue), and assay of enzyme (glucose-6-phosphatase) activity. Gene testing, a recently available test that can detect mutations, provides a non-invasive technique for definitive diagnosis.     SYMPTOMS Not growing fast enough. Not feeling comfortable in hot weather (heat intolerance) Bruising too easily. Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) An enlarged liver. A swollen b...
