M97Periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic joint

M97 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic joint. It belongs to block M97 (Periprosthetic fracture around internal prosthetic joint) and chapter 13 (diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 7 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: M97.0 (joint), M97.1 (joint), M97.2 (joint), M97.3 (joint), M97.4 (joint), M97.8 (joint) and M97.9 (joint).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of M97, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: fracture of bone following insertion of orthopedic implant, joint prosthesis or bone plate (M96.6-) and breakage (fracture) of prosthetic joint (T84.01-).

Code first: , if known, the specific type and cause of fracture, such as traumatic or pathological.

It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
