ICD9 and ICD10 codes of Spinal Muscular Atrophy

The ICD-10 code for Spinal Muscular Atrophy is G12.0. In the ICD-9 coding system, Spinal Muscular Atrophy is classified under code 335.0. Spinal Muscular Atrophy is a genetic disorder characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons in the spinal cord, leading to muscle weakness and atrophy. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.


Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disorder that affects the motor neurons in the spinal cord, leading to muscle weakness and atrophy. In the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10), the specific code for SMA is G12.0. This code falls under the broader category of "Other specified degenerative diseases of the nervous system."

In the previous edition, ICD-9, the code for SMA was 335.0. Under ICD-9, this code was categorized as "Spinal muscular atrophy and related syndromes." It's important to note that ICD-9 codes are no longer used for medical billing and documentation, as healthcare systems have transitioned to ICD-10 for improved specificity and accuracy in diagnosing and coding diseases.

The ICD-10 code G12.0 and the previous ICD-9 code 335.0 allow healthcare professionals to accurately identify and classify cases of SMA. These codes facilitate proper documentation, billing, and research, enabling healthcare providers to deliver appropriate care and support to individuals affected by this condition.
