== Additional Info ==
incl after surgical removal
Absent or reduced splenic function, usually due to surgical removal, congenital aplasia, tumor replacement, or splenic vascular accident. Red blood cell abnormalities, including the presence of inclusions, nucleated red blood cells, and target cells, are commonly present. Patients with hyposplenism are at increased risk of bacterial sepsis, especially due to infection by Pneumococcus.
Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead or in addition
(turn these into links to the actual diagnosis articles if possible. For some that might make no sense.) Consider trauma codes, cancer codes.
Candidate Combined ICD10 codes
(put links to likely candidates coded with this one, eg. a cause for a trauma.)
