Inclusion terms
Alternative wording in documentation that is classified to M61.1.
- Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from M60-M63
The conditions below can never be reported together with M61.1 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 13
The conditions below are not part of M61.1, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, M61.1 and the excluded code may both be reported.

- certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
- compartment syndrome (traumatic) (T79.A-)
