3A51.2 Sickle cell disease with crisis
International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2025-01
Sickle cell crisis occurs when the sickle cells block blood flow, thus decreasing oxygen delivery to the tissues. This results in intense to severe pain in the extremities, lower back, abdomen, and chest. A crisis can be brought on by illness, stress, dehydration, exposure to temperature changes or high altitudes.
