Also do check if Plummer-Vinson Syndrome, Paterson-Kelly Syndrome or Sideropenic Dysphagia is applicable in this case. </p> http://www.supercoder.com/forum/topic/diag-7503#post-670 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 14:30:12 +0000 Melanie Cramer 670@http://www.supercoder.com/forum/ <p>I had a discussion with the physician who treated a patient with a webbed esophagus - its not Shatzki's Ring by any definition - however, when I brought the diag code 750.3 to the physician's attention, he clarified that this webbing was not congenital...</p> <p>Can 750.3 still be used to indicate webbed esophagus even though its found under a congenital definition for 750.3???? </p>
