The ICD-10-CM code for Prespondylolisthesis is Q76.2 (Congenital spondylolisthesis).

Within Q76 (congenital malformations of spine and bony thorax), Q76.2 is specifically for congenital spondylolisthesis. Related codes cover spina bifida occulta (Q76.0), Klippel-Feil syndrome (Q76.1), congenital scoliosis due to congenital bony malformation (Q76.3), other congenital malformations of spine, not associated with scoliosis (Q76.4), cervical rib (Q76.5), other congenital malformations of ribs (Q76.6), congenital malformation of sternum (Q76.7), other congenital malformations of bony thorax (Q76.8) and 1 more.

Don't report Q76.2 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: spondylolisthesis (acquired) (M43.1-) and spondylolysis (acquired) (M43.0-).

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