Additional Info
- Includes "restrictive lung disease NOS"
- Excludes: "Lung nodules NYD"; if they were not NYD we would code them as what they are; since we don't know, they should be coded as Lung, diagnostic imaging, abnormal.
- There is not separate ICD10 code for a bronchopleural fistula. So to code this one should combine: Disorder of lung, NOS and Pleural disorder, NOS. IF, as is usually the case when these fistulas are spontaneous (rather than caused iatrogenically or by trauma), it is due to lung infection or abscess, then that code should also be combined with these; and also code Empyema (pyothorax) if present, combining it with the others.
