DOes anyone know the ICD-9 code for Peyers Patch???
 
Peyer's Patches are normal lymphoid nodules in the small intestines. They aide in our immune process, if there is excessve growth, then that can lead to other diseases. Is the pathologist dictating there is an abnormal process or just confirming the Peyer's Patches are present?

I usually see lymphoid hyperplasia or hypertrophy, which the dx code is just the 569.89.
