Does anyone know what to use for this dx? The procedure was BL subdural peritoneal shunts. TIA...Shelly
 
The surgeon only states subdural fluid. The path report states orange cloudy subdural fluid, atypical cells. I could not find CSF documented anywhere...???
 
I think I found the answer...432.1 subdural hygroma? The pt has prostate cancer met to the bone and history of renal insufficiency. No definitive cause stated for the fluid collection.
