Chondrocalcinosis is defined as mineralization of hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage related to deposition of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals and is most commonly observed in the menisci of the knee.
Chondrocalcinosis, also known as calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) and pseudogout, is a condition where calcium pyrophosphate crystals build up in the joints. It is a type of arthritis that causes inflammation, stiffness, tenderness, redness, and warmth of the joints.
Overview. Pseudogout (SOO-doe-gout) is a form of arthritis characterized by sudden, painful swelling in one or more of your joints. These episodes can last for days or weeks. The most commonly affected joint is the knee.
Calcium Pyrophosphate Dihydrate Deposition Disease (CPPD, or Pseudogout) Pseudogout (or "false gout") is a form of arthritis that results from deposits of calcium pyrophosphate crystals (its medical term is calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease, or CPPD). It commonly affects the knees and wrists.

I looked up what Chondrocalcinosis meant, and it said also known as pseudogout. So, for pseudogout of the L knee, I would use dx code M11. 262. Hope this helps!
Gout and pseudogout, while both joint problems caused by crystals, are caused by different kinds of crystals. Gout is caused by sodium urate crystals and pseudogout is caused by calcium pyrophosphate crystals.
