ICD-9-CM coded needed for complication of Plastibell circumcision in newborn
Good evening,
I came across a case today where a newborn had a Plastibell circumcision. He was being seen because the device was stuck to the glans penis (usually, the device should fall off after several days).
I know this would be a procedural complication code. I'm curious to see what ICD-9-CM code(s) you come up with.
Thanks,
Cynthia
