Clinical Information

• Carotid Body Tumor

  benign paraganglioma at the bifurcation of the common carotid arteries. it can encroach on the parapharyngeal space and produce dysphagia, pain, and cranial nerve palsies.

• Glomus Jugulare Tumor

  a paraganglioma involving the glomus jugulare, a microscopic collection of chemoreceptor tissue in the adventitia of the bulb of the jugular vein. it may cause paralysis of the vocal cords, attacks of dizziness, blackouts, and nystagmus. it is not resectable but radiation therapy is effective. it regresses slowly, but permanent control is regularly achieved. (from dorland, 27th ed; stedman, 25th ed; devita jr et al., cancer: principles & practice of oncology, 3d ed, pp1603-4)

• Paraganglioma

  a neural crest tumor usually derived from the chromoreceptor tissue of a paraganglion, such as the carotid body, or medulla of the adrenal gland (usually called a chromaffinoma or pheochromocytoma). it is more common in women than in men. (stedman, 25th ed; from segen, dictionary of modern medicine, 1992)

• Paraganglioma, Extra-Adrenal

  a relatively rare, usually benign neoplasm originating in the chemoreceptor tissue of the carotid body; glomus jugulare; glomus tympanicum; aortic bodies; and the female genital tract. it consists histologically of rounded or ovoid hyperchromatic cells that tend to be grouped in an alveolus-like pattern within a scant to moderate amount of fibrous stroma and a few large thin-walled vascular channels. (from stedman, 27th ed)

• Carotid Artery, Common

  the two principal arteries supplying the structures of the head and neck. they ascend in the neck, one on each side, and at the level of the upper border of the thyroid cartilage, each divides into two branches, the external (carotid artery, external) and internal (carotid artery, internal) carotid arteries.

• Secondary Polycythemia

  polycythemia resulting from an elevated concentration of erythropoietin.

• Erythrocytosis

  abnormally high level of red blood cells in the blood.

• Familial Polycythemia|Familial Erythrocytosis

  polycythemia that occurs in groups of related individuals.

• Stress Polycythemia

  polycythemia that is caused by stress.

• TEMPI Syndrome

  a rare syndrome characterized by telangiectasias, elevated erythropoietin level and erythrocytosis, monoclonal gammopathy, perinephric fluid collections, and intrapulmonary shunting. it is best classified as a type of plasma cell dyscrasia with paraneoplastic manifestations.

D75.1 is grouped with Diagnostic Related Groups - MS-DRG Mapping

Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) are a classification system used to group together diagnosis codes for the purpose of reimbursement and healthcare management. DRGs are used to standardize the way hospitals and other providers are paid for inpatient services. In this system patients are grouped together based on their principal diagnosis in areas referred to as Major Diagnostic Categories (MDC). Once a patient is assigned a particular diagnostic category, providers receive a predetermined payment rate for the services rendered. This reimbursement rate is often fixed and is meant to cover the cost of care for that patient. Reimbursement is also affected by the relative weight of a diagnostic related group based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.

Diagnostic related groups encourage healthcare providers to focus on quality and efficiency in patient care while managing costs effectively. The diagnosis code is present in the following groups for version MS-DRG V41.0 applicable from 10/01/2023 through 09/30/2024.

The relative weight of a diagnostic related group determines the reimbursement rate based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.

Patient Education

Blood Disorders

Your blood is living tissue made up of liquid and solids. The liquid part, called plasma, is made of water, salts and protein. Over half of your blood is plasma. The solid part of your blood contains red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.

Blood disorders affect one or more parts of the blood and prevent your blood from doing its job. They can be acute or chronic. Many blood disorders are inherited. Other causes include other diseases, side effects of medicines, and a lack of certain nutrients in your diet.

Types of blood disorders include:

• Platelet disorders, excessive clotting, and bleeding problems, which affect how your blood clots
• Anemia, which happens when your blood does not carry enough oxygen to the rest of your body
• Cancers of the blood, such as leukemia and myeloma
• Eosinophilic disorders, which are problems with one type of white blood cell.
