About M24.351

M24.351 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pathological dislocation of right hip, not elsewhere classified. It belongs to category M24 (other specific joint derangements), block M20-M25 (other joint disorders) and chapter 13 (diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within M24.35 (pathological dislocation of hip, not elsewhere classified), M24.351 is specifically for pathological dislocation of right hip, not elsewhere classified. Related codes cover left hip, not elsewhere classified (M24.352) and unspecified hip, not elsewhere classified (M24.359).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 564 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 1.4908), DRG 565 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue Diagnoses with CC, relative weight 0.9783) and DRG 566 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7378), in MDC 08 (Diseases and Disorders of the Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 718.25 (pathological dislocation of joint, pelvic region and thigh).
