Pulmonary laceration is a common result of penetrating trauma but may also be caused by blunt trauma; broken ribs may perforate the lung, or the tissue may be torn due to shearing forces [5] that result from different rates of acceleration or deceleration of different tissues of the lung. [6]
Pulmonary laceration, in which lung tissue is torn or cut, differs from pulmonary contusion in that the former involves disruption of the macroscopic architecture of the lung, [1] while the latter does not. [2] When lacerations fill with blood, the result is pulmonary hematoma, a collection of blood within the lung tissue. [3]

A pneumatocele results when a lung laceration, a cut or tear in the lung tissue, fills with air. [4] A rupture of a small airway creates the air-filled cavity. [1] Pulmonary lacerations that fill with blood are called pulmonary hematomas. [4] In some cases, both pneumatoceles and hematomas exist in the same injured lung. [5]

This category reflects the organization of International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision. Generally, diseases outlined within the ICD-10 codes S00-S09 within Chapter XIX: Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes should be included in this category.
This is a shortened version of the seventeenth chapter of the ICD-9: Diseases of the Digestive System.It covers ICD codes 800 to 999.The full chapter can be found on pages 473 to 546 of Volume 1, which contains all (sub)categories of the ICD-9.
