KD39.0

ICD-11 MMS 2026-01

Fetus or newborn affected by amniocentesis

Description

Amniocentesis involves extracting a small sample of amniotic fluid surrounding the fetus. Risks include miscarriage or injury if the needle comes into contact with the fetus or placenta.

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.
