998.12 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for hematoma complicating a procedure. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.

The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 60 ICD-10-CM codes, such as D78.01 (Intraoperative hemorrhage and hematoma of the spleen complicating a procedure on the spleen), D78.02 (Intraoperative hemorrhage and hematoma of the spleen complicating other procedure) and D78.31 (Postprocedural hematoma of the spleen following a procedure on the spleen). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
