Excludes1 — never code together

The conditions below can never be reported together with M27.1 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • peripheral giant cell granuloma (K06.8)

Inclusion terms

Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to M27.1.

  • Giant cell granuloma NOS

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from M26-M27

The conditions below can never be reported together with M27.1 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • hemifacial atrophy or hypertrophy (Q67.4)
  • unilateral condylar hyperplasia or hypoplasia (M27.8)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 13

The conditions below are not part of M27.1, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, M27.1 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • arthropathic psoriasis (L40.5-)
  • certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
  • certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
  • compartment syndrome (traumatic) (T79.A-)
