Abstract This article explains the development and use of ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes, CPT procedure codes, and HCPCS supply/device codes. Examples of appropriate coding combinations, and Coding rules adopted by most third party payers are given. Additionally, references for complete code lists on the Web and a list of voice-related CPT code edits are included. The reader is given adequate information to report an evaluation or treatment session with accurate diagnosis, procedure, and supply/device codes. Speech-language pathologists can accurately code services when given adequate resources and rules and are encouraged to insert relevant codes in the medical record rather than depend on billing personnel to accurately provide this information. Consultation is available from the Division 3 Reimbursement Committee members and from [email protected] .

Heterotopic pancreas is a congenital pathology of the gastrointestinal tract, particularly rare in the esophagus. Both symptomatology and findings during preoperative examinations are non-specific and therefore do not often lead to an accurate diagnosis, which is usually revealed only by histopathological assessment of a resected specimen. We report an unusual case of a patient suffering from severe dysphagia caused by heterotopic pancreas in the distal esophagus with chronic inflammation and foci of premalignant changes. This article also reviews 14 adult cases of heterotopic pancreas in the esophagus previously reported in the literature, with the aim of determining the clinical features of this disease and possible complications including rare premalignant lesions and malignant transformation. Especially with regard to those complications, we suggest that both symptomatic and incidentally found asymptomatic lesions should be resected.

The prognosis of gastric cancer depends principally upon an early diagnosis. An early and accurate diagnosis of gastric cancer needs some basic knowledges about the endoscopic characteristics of white light endoscopy, chromoendoscopy, magnified endoscopy, FICE and NBI…A strategy of screening is also a key factor for early diagnosis. The treatment of early gastric cancer by endoscopy techniques have showed more and more advantages. Beside of EMR, the technique of ESD is now applied more widely and lead to a very good prognosis and nearly a curative treatment for the patients with early gastric cancer. Key words: gastric cancer, early gastric cancer, diagnosis, endoscopy
