Oth deforming dorsopathies, sacral and sacrococcygeal region

This code signifies a non-specific, structural deformity of the sacrum or coccyx that doesn't fit into more specific categories of deforming dorsopathies. It indicates an anatomical alteration in the sacral or sacrococcygeal region causing a deviation from normal structure.

Use this code when documentation specifies a deforming condition of the sacrum or coccyx, such as a sacral dysgenesis, coccygeal malformation, or other structural anomaly, that is not classified elsewhere. The physician's notes should clearly describe the deformity and its location within the sacral or sacrococcygeal region.

• Ensure the documentation explicitly states "sacral" or "sacrococcygeal" region to support this specific site.
• Avoid using this code if a more specific deforming dorsopathy code (e.g., for spondylolisthesis, kyphosis, or scoliosis) can be assigned.
• Always review the entire medical record to confirm that the deformity is not secondary to trauma or a congenital anomaly with a more precise code.
