Codes in ICD-10-CM category K91.- (intraoperative and postprocedural complications and disorders of digestive system, not elsewhere classified) are complication codes. They require physician documentation and confirmation of a cause-and-effect relationship between the procedure and the complicated condition. Documentation must also support this relationship.
