Clinical Classification

Clinical Information

  • Breast Cancer Lymphedema

    abnormal accumulation of lymph in the arm, shoulder and breast area associated with surgical treatment (e.g., mastectomy) or radiation treatment of breast cancer.
  • Lymphedema

    edema due to obstruction of lymph vessels or disorders of the lymph nodes.
  • Non-Filarial Lymphedema

    a form of elephantiasis caused by soil particles which penetrate the skin of the foot. it is limited to tropical regions with soils of high volcanic content.
  • Yellow Nail Syndrome

    a rare condition characterized by the presence of yellow nails, lymphedema, and/or pleural effusion with respiratory tract involvement. abnormal lymphatic network may play a role in its etiology. occasionally inherited, yellow nail syndrome mostly is sporadic without apparent family history.
  • Lipedema

    disorder of adipose tissue characterized by symmetric and bilateral enlargement of the lower extremities due to abnormal deposition of subcutaneous fat often in obese women. it is associated with hematoma, pain and may progress to secondary lymphedema which is known as lipolymphedema.
  • Mastectomy

    surgical procedure to remove one or both breasts.
  • Primary Lymphedema

    a congenital condition that results in swelling in the arms or legs, and can occur during adolescence or adulthood. loss of motion and pain may also accompany the swelling. protein-rich lymphatic fluid accumulates in tissues, engorging and enlarging vessels and often causing visible swelling, tenderness, and pain. left untreated, the affected tissues may continue to swell, and can become hardened or fibrotic and susceptible to infection.

Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries

The following annotation back-references are applicable to this diagnosis code. The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10-CM codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more.


Inclusion Terms

Inclusion Terms
These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. The inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive. Additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.
  • Elephantiasis (nonfilarial) NOS
  • Lymphangiectasis
  • Obliteration, lymphatic vessel
  • Praecox lymphedema
  • Secondary lymphedema

Type 1 Excludes

Type 1 Excludes
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
  • postmastectomy lymphedema I97.2
