The ICD-9 code for status post cholecystectomy is ICD-9-CM 574.10, which refers to "Cholelithiasis with acute cholecystitis, without mention of obstruction." However, for a patient who has undergone a cholecystectomy, the appropriate code is V45.61, indicating "Personal history of surgery to the biliary tract." Always consult current coding resources or guidelines for the most accurate and applicable codes.
