2007 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis 682.9

Cellulitis and abscess of unspecified sites

This code may be outdated. View the most recent version of ICD-9-CM 682.9

  • Accumulation of purulent material in tissues, organs, or circumscribed spaces, usually associated with signs of infection.
  • An acute, diffuse, and suppurative inflammation of loose connective tissue, particularly the deep subcutaneous tissues, and sometimes muscle, which is most commonly seen as a result of infection of a wound, ulcer, or other skin lesions.
  • An acute, spreading infection of the deep tissues of the skin and muscle that causes the skin to become warm and tender and may also cause fever, chills, swollen lymph nodes, and blisters.
  • An enclosed collection of pus in tissues, organs, or confined spaces in the body. An abscess is a sign of infection and is usually swollen and inflamed.
