O26.71Subluxation of symphysis (pubis) in pregnancy

O26.71 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for subluxation of symphysis (pubis) in pregnancy. It belongs to category O26 (maternal care for other conditions predominantly related to pregnancy), block O20-O29 (other maternal disorders predominantly related to pregnancy) and chapter 15 (pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

Within O26.7 (subluxation of symphysis (pubis) in pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium), O26.71 is specifically for subluxation of symphysis (pubis) in pregnancy. Related codes cover childbirth (O26.72) and the puerperium (O26.73).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: O26.711 (first trimester), O26.712 (second trimester), O26.713 (third trimester) and O26.719 (unspecified trimester).

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