ICD10 code of Ehlers Danlos and ICD9 code

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

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.
