About coding thyroid cartilage dislocation

The ICD-10-CM code for thyroid cartilage dislocation is S13.29 (Dislocation of other parts of neck).

Within S13.2, choose S13.29 (other parts of neck) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: unspecified parts of neck (S13.20).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

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