Abstract:
Interventional therapy for hepatic malignant tumours primarily includes cardiovascular system surgery,diges-tive system surgery,and various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.Referring to the"International Classification of Diseases,Ninth Edition,Clinical Modification,ICD-9-CM-3"(2011 revision),the relevant surgical procedure codes on the front page of the case are contained mainly in the 9th chapter for cardiovascular system surgery,the 11th chapter for digestive system surgery,and the 18th chapter for various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures and other related chapters on diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.It has become a challenge for the history coders to complete the first page of interventional surgery cases by reviewing the surgery records,extracting the surgical steps,and then identifying the appropriate surgery codes and their sequencing.Accord-ing to the current classification of interventional therapy for hepatic malignant tumors,it is suggested to conduct the search and re-trieval using the keywords like"arteriography""embolization""perfusion""implantation""destruction"and"ablation".
