Im struggling to find correct coding for Hepatic Veno Occlusive Disease after bone marrow transplant.
 
Coding 'hepatic veno occlusive disease"

I am confident that the code you are seeking is :
453.0 Budd-Chiari syndrome
Hepatic vein thrombosis (ICD-9-CM coding manual, 2012)
Searching the index for "Occulsion, vein"
leads to "See THROMBOSIS"
and the code for "Thrombosis of hepatic vein" is 453.0

Remember 'veno refers to vein'

Hope I was able to help

Donald
