Other specific joint derangements of unspecified wrist, not elsewhere classified

BILLABLE

| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016

M24.839 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of other specific joint derangements of unspecified wrist, not elsewhere classified. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code M24 is used to code Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a very rare tumor. It is a rare neoplasm of the dermis layer of the skin, and is classified as a sarcoma. There is only about one case per million per year. DFSP is a fibrosarcoma, more precisely a cutaneous soft tissue sarcoma. In many respects, the disease behaves as a benign tumor, but in 2–5% of cases it can metastasize, so it should be considered to have malignant potential. It occurs most often in adults in their thirties; it has been described congenitally, in children, and the elderly. It accounts for approximately 2–6% of soft tissue sarcoma cancers.

Equivalent ICD-9 Code GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS (GEM)

Other joint derangement, not elsewhere classified, forearm (approximate match)

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code M24.839 and a single ICD9 code, 718.83 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
