ICD-10-CM Code E74.4
Disorders of pyruvate metabolism and gluconeogenesis
Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.E74.4 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of disorders of pyruvate metabolism and gluconeogenesis. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
The ICD code E744 is used to code Pyruvate carboxylase deficiency
Pyruvate carboxylase deficiency is an inherited disorder that causes lactic acid and other potentially toxic compounds to accumulate in the blood. High levels of these substances can damage the body's organs and tissues, particularly in the nervous system. Pyruvate carboxylase deficiency is a rare condition, with an estimated incidence of 1 in 250,000 births worldwide. This disorder appears to be much more common in some Algonkian Indian tribes in eastern Canada.
