Clinical InformationClinical

  • Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency

    a rare autosomal recessive immunodeficiency disorder caused by deficiency of cd18 expression. it is characterized by defects in neutrophil adhesion and bacterial infections.
  • Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency Type 1|LAD-1|LAD-1 Deficiency|LAD-Type I|LAD1|LFA-I Deficiency|LFA1 Immunodeficiency

    a rare immunodeficiency with an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. it is caused by mutation in the itgb2 gene on chromosome 21 which codes for the beta subunit of beta-2 integrin (cd18). the mutation results in significantly reduced or absent expression of cd18 on the surface of leukocytes which impairs their ability to migrate and interact with antigens. initial clinical signs include omphalitis and delayed separation of the umbilical cord. the clinical course is marked by recurrent bacterial and fungal infection without pus formation. in instances where there is < 1% expression of cd18, prognosis is dismal with a high likelihood for life-threatening infection within the first year of life.
  • Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency Type 2|CDGIIc|Congenital Disorder of Glycosylation Type IIc|LAD-Type II|Sialyl-Lewis X Defect

    leukocyte adhesion deficiency, type ii. an inherited disease affecting the metabolism of fucose, which affects the expression of the sialyl lewis x antigen, the fucose-containing ligand for e- and p-selectins, resulting in a deficiency in neutrophil adhesion. syn sialyl-lewis x defect.
  • Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency Type 3|LAD-3|LAD-III

    an autosomal recessive condition caused by mutation(s) in the fermt3 gene, encoding fermitin family homolog 3. it is characterized by a defect in activation of all beta integrins. it manifests clinically as severe infections with marked leukocytosis, accompanied by life-threatening bleeding episodes.

Questions About D71.1Overview

Is D71.1 (Functional disorders of polymorphonuclear neutrophils) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report leukocyte adhesion deficiency on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.

What MS-DRG does D71.1 group to?

When leukocyte adhesion deficiency is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 808, 809, 810, with relative weights from 1.0466 to 2.2079 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
