The following list of clinical terms are approximate synonyms, alternative descriptions, or common phrases that might be used by patients, healthcare providers, or medical coders to describe the same condition. These synonyms and related diagnosis terms are often used when searching for an ICD-10 code, especially when the exact medical terminology is unclear. Whether you're looking for lay terms, similar diagnosis names, or common language alternatives, this list can help guide you to the correct ICD-10 classification.

Clinical Classifications group individual ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes into broader, clinically meaningful categories. These categories help simplify complex data by organizing related conditions under common clinical themes.

They are especially useful for data analysis, reporting, and clinical decision-making. Even when diagnosis codes differ, similar conditions can be grouped together based on their clinical relevance. Each category is assigned a unique CCSR code that represents a specific clinical concept, often tied to a body system or medical specialty.

CCSR Code: BLD007

Inpatient Default: Y - Yes, default inpatient assignment for principal diagnosis or first-listed diagnosis.

Outpatient Default: Y - Yes, default outpatient assignment for principal diagnosis or first-listed diagnosis.

a rare autosomal recessive immunodeficiency disorder caused by deficiency of cd18 expression. it is characterized by defects in neutrophil adhesion and bacterial infections.

a rare immunodeficiency with an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. it is caused by mutation in the itgb2 gene on chromosome 21 which codes for the beta subunit of beta-2 integrin (cd18). the mutation results in significantly reduced or absent expression of cd18 on the surface of leukocytes which impairs their ability to migrate and interact with antigens. initial clinical signs include omphalitis and delayed separation of the umbilical cord. the clinical course is marked by recurrent bacterial and fungal infection without pus formation. in instances where there is < 1% expression of cd18, prognosis is dismal with a high likelihood for life-threatening infection within the first year of life.

leukocyte adhesion deficiency, type ii. an inherited disease affecting the metabolism of fucose, which affects the expression of the sialyl lewis x antigen, the fucose-containing ligand for e- and p-selectins, resulting in a deficiency in neutrophil adhesion. syn sialyl-lewis x defect.

an autosomal recessive condition caused by mutation(s) in the fermt3 gene, encoding fermitin family homolog 3. it is characterized by a defect in activation of all beta integrins. it manifests clinically as severe infections with marked leukocytosis, accompanied by life-threatening bleeding episodes.

Below are the ICD-9 codes that most closely match this ICD-10 code, based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEMs). This ICD-10 to ICD-9 crosswalk tool is helpful for coders who need to reference legacy diagnosis codes for audits, historical claims, or approximate code comparisons.

ICD-9-CM: 288.8

This is a direct match with no additional mapping qualifiers. The absence of a flag generally means the mapping is considered exact or precise. In other words, the ICD-10 code maps cleanly to the ICD-9 code without qualification, approximation, or needing multiple codes.

Blood Disorders

Your blood is living tissue made up of liquid and solids. The liquid part, called plasma, is made of water, salts and protein. Over half of your blood is plasma. The solid part of your blood contains red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.

Blood disorders affect one or more parts of the blood and prevent your blood from doing its job. They can be acute or chronic. Many blood disorders are inherited. Other causes include other diseases, side effects of medicines, and a lack of certain nutrients in your diet.

Types of blood disorders include:
