K11.5 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of sialolithiasis. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code K115 is used to code Sialolithiasis

Sialolithiasis (also termed salivary calculi, or salivary stones), is a condition where a calcified mass or sialolith forms within a salivary gland, usually in the duct of the submandibular gland (also termed "Wharton's duct"). Less commonly the parotid gland or rarely the sublingual gland or a minor salivary gland may develop salivary stones.
