ICD-9-CM procedure code (retired)
46.51 — Closure of stoma of small intestine
About ICD-9-CM 46.51
46.51 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for closure of stoma of small intestine. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 5 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 0DQ80ZZ (Repair Small Intestine, Open Approach), 0DQ90ZZ (Repair Duodenum, Open Approach) and 0DQA0ZZ (Repair Jejunum, Open Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one. Some mappings are combinations: more than one ICD-10 code is needed to fully express the ICD-9 code.
