KC31

ICD-11 MMS 2026-01

Congenital erosive or vesicular dermatosis healing with reticulated supple scarring

Description

A rare condition reported principally in premature neonates characterised by extensive erosions, vesicles, ulcerations and crusts affecting up to 75% of the body surface. The cause is unknown and the skin heals rapidly leaving faint reticulate scars.

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.
