J39.8 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of other specified diseases of upper respiratory tract. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.

The ICD code J398 is used to code Laryngotracheal stenosis

Laryngotracheal stenosis refers to abnormal narrowing of the central air passageways. This can occur at the level of the larynx, trachea, carina or main bronchi. In a small number of patients narrowing may be present in more than one anatomical location.

Specialty: Pulmonology
MeSH Codes: D014135, D014135
ICD 9 Codes: 519.19, 748.3

This condition can also be referred to as subglottic or tracheal stenosis.
