ICD-9-CM diagnosis code (retired)
905.7 — Late effect of sprain and strain without mention of tendon injury
About ICD-9-CM 905.7
905.7 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for late effect of sprain and strain without mention of tendon injury. 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 16 ICD-10-CM codes, such as S03.9XXS (Sprain of joints and ligaments of unspecified parts of head, sequela), S13.9XXS (Sprain of joints and ligaments of unspecified parts of neck, sequela) and S23.9XXS (Sprain of unspecified parts of thorax, sequela). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
