ICD10 code of Ehlers Danlos and ICD9 code

What is the ICD10 code for Ehlers Danlos? And the ICD9 code for Ehlers Danlos?

ICD9 and ICD10 codes of Ehlers Danlos

The ICD-10 code for Ehlers Danlos syndrome is M35.9. This code is used to classify the condition characterized by connective tissue disorders affecting joints, skin, and blood vessels. In the previous ICD-9 system, Ehlers Danlos syndrome was classified under ICD-9 code 756.83. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and proper coding.


Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) is a group of rare genetic disorders affecting connective tissues, specifically collagen production. Each type of EDS has a distinct set of symptoms and complications. The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10), provides specific codes for different types of EDS. The most commonly used code for EDS is Q79.6, which represents "Ehlers-Danlos syndrome." Additional subtypes have their own codes, such as Q79.6A for the hypermobility type and Q79.6B for the classical type.

In contrast, the previous edition of the classification system, ICD-9, did not have specific codes for different types of EDS. Instead, it utilized a general code, 756.83, for "Other congenital musculoskeletal deformities." This code encompassed a broader range of conditions beyond EDS alone.

It is important to note that the ICD coding system is regularly updated to reflect advancements in medical knowledge. Therefore, it is always recommended to consult the latest version of ICD-10 for accurate and up-to-date coding information.

ICD9 codes are less detailed and don't support medical research. The ICD10 codes are more specific. For example ICD-10-CM Q79.6 is for EDS.

The ICD-10 codes for Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is Q79.6. However, there are more specific codes for some types of EDS.

Q79.61 Classical Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
Q79.62 Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
Q79.63 Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome
Q79.69 Other Ehlers-Danlos syndromes
Q79.8 Other congenital malformations of musculoskeletal system

The ICD-9 code for Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is 756.83. However, 756.83 should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015. For claims with a date of service on or after October 1, 2015, use the ICD-10 codes.
