# Obstruction

Since an obstruction describes blockage inside the space of a tubular structure, the Finding site of obstruction concepts should be a value from the 113342003 |Structure of lumen of body system (body structure)| subhierarchy.

For example,

When modeling gastrointestinal tract obstruction concepts, the Finding site value should be a value from the 432899004 |Structure of lumen of gastrointestinal tract (body structure)| hierarchy as the site obstructed is the lumen of the tract.

{% hint style="info" %}
At present, some but not all anatomy content exists to support this model for tracts, ducts and blood vessels beyond the gastrointestinal tract but is expected in the future.
{% endhint %}
