ICD-10 code
I changed the ICD-10 code to D18.1 before. As much as it looks odd going to the lymphangioma code, which is a benign neoplasm code within Chapter II; this is were the trail for Hygroma points too. And can be verified by searching for hygroma on the online edition of ICD-10 (the 2016 version at time of writing). Sequelae codes could be used to enhance any hygromas of a known cause (e.g. haemorrhagic, traumatic) Little pob (talk) 12:07, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

Foundations II 2020 Group [6] Proposed Edits
Subdural hygroma, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subdural_hygroma

·I propose the addition of a content tab for Etiology and Pathophysiology of Subdural Hygromas (SHG). The information included includes more detailed pathophysiology of SHG, proposed reason for higher frequency in adults vs children, ·location in the brain where most frequent occurrence happens, two classes of SHG, Information found from PMID 9653522.

·I propose a modification of the content under the "Diagnosis" content tab. Propose an addition of information in regards to difficulty in diagnosis of SGH vs Chronic Subdural Hematoma in the majority of patient cases.

·I propose a modification of the content under "Signs and Symptoms" to include clinical SxS experienced by and reported by patients.

·I propose a modification to "Treatments" regarding outcomes. Include information regarding the self-limiting nature of SHG, rehydration as a treatment, and outcomes generally based on initial trauma/injury rather than SGH itself.

·The proposed edits to the article do not involve the removal of materials belonging to other editors at this time. This is seeking to update the article with information that may be more relevant to patients who have been diagnosed with SGH.
