K91.2 (Postsurgical malabsorption, not elsewhere classified) compared with T83.61XD (Infection and inflammatory reaction due to implanted penile prosthesis, subsequent encounter), from the official CMS tabular data. Both may be reported when both conditions are documented (Excludes2).
Distinct conditions — both may be reported.
“postsurgical blind-loop syndrome (K91.2)”
An Excludes2 note means the excluded condition is not part of the code above it, but a patient can have both. Report both when both are documented.
