About coding pineal gland dysfunction

The ICD-10-CM code for pineal gland dysfunction is E34.8 (Other specified endocrine disorders).

Within E34, choose E34.8 (Other specified endocrine disorders) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: carcinoid syndrome (E34.0), other hypersecretion of intestinal hormones (E34.1), ectopic hormone secretion, not elsewhere classified (E34.2), short stature due to endocrine disorder (E34.3), constitutional tall stature (E34.4), androgen insensitivity syndrome (E34.5) and endocrine disorder, unspecified (E34.9).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of E34.8, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: pseudohypoparathyroidism (E20.1).

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