About ICD-9-CM 753.6
753.6 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for atresia and stenosis of urethra and bladder neck. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 5 ICD-10-CM codes, such as Q64.2 (Congenital posterior urethral valves), Q64.31 (Congenital bladder neck obstruction) and Q64.32 (Congenital stricture of urethra). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
