psoas abcess –I would code this as: intra abd abcess- non post op (if no surgery) since it is muscles deep in abdomen on either side of lumber spine from T12 down to L5 from what I can read. We don’t have a code for retro peritoneal abcess so Intrabdominal abcess would cover it, even though not specific. | |||
