KA80.5

ICD-11 MMS 2026-01

Fetal blood loss from cut end of co-twin cord

Description

Sometimes the blood content of monozygotic twins differs considerably, which can occur when anastomoses exist. One twin loses blood through shunts, while the other gains a large quantity of blood. Therefore, following the delivery of one twin, the other may bleed through these anastomoses if the umbilical cord of the delivered twin is not immediately clamped.

Coding note from above levels

Conditions arising in the perinatal period, even though death or morbidity occurs later, should, as far as possible, be coded to chapter 19, which takes precedence over chapters containing codes for diseases by their anatomical site. For children less than 28 days old, assume that a reported condition developed in the perinatal period, unless the duration is stated and the onset was after the first completed week of life.
