About ICD-9-CM 755.39
755.39 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for longitudinal deficiency, phalanges, complete or partial. 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 2 ICD-10-CM codes, such as Q72.30 (Congenital absence of unspecified foot and toe(s)) and Q72.70 (Split foot, unspecified lower limb). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
