About coding congenital poikiloderma

The ICD-10-CM code for congenital poikiloderma is Q82.8 (Other specified congenital malformations of skin).

Within Q82, choose Q82.8 (Other specified congenital malformations of skin) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: hereditary lymphedema (Q82.0), Xeroderma pigmentosum (Q82.1), congenital cutaneous mastocytosis (Q82.2), Incontinentia pigmenti (Q82.3), ectodermal dysplasia (anhidrotic) (Q82.4), congenital non-neoplastic nevus (Q82.5), congenital sacral dimple (Q82.6) and congenital malformation of skin, unspecified (Q82.9).

Don't report Q82.8 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (Q79.6-).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of Q82.8, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: disorders of pyrophosphate metabolism (E83.82-).

Don't confuse with (Excludes1 for Q82.8)

  • Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (Q79.6-)
