About coding stomach syphilis

The ICD-10-CM code for stomach syphilis is A52.74 (Syphilis of liver and other viscera).

Within A52.7, choose A52.74 (Syphilis of liver and other viscera) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: late syphilitic oculopathy (A52.71), syphilis of lung and bronchus (A52.72), symptomatic late syphilis of other respiratory organs (A52.73), syphilis of kidney and ureter (A52.75), other genitourinary symptomatic late syphilis (A52.76), syphilis of bone and joint (A52.77), syphilis of other musculoskeletal tissue (A52.78) and other symptomatic late syphilis (A52.79).

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 441 (Disorders of Liver Except Malignancy, Cirrhosis or Alcoholic Hepatitis with MCC, relative weight 1.8219), DRG 442 (Disorders of Liver Except Malignancy, Cirrhosis or Alcoholic Hepatitis with CC, relative weight 0.9602) and DRG 443 (Disorders of Liver Except Malignancy, Cirrhosis or Alcoholic Hepatitis without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6885), in MDC 07 (Diseases and Disorders of the Hepatobiliary System and Pancreas), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
