ICD-10-CM Code for Other hammer toe(s) (acquired) M20. 4.
Hammer toes (also known as claw toes, mallet toes or retracted toes) are toes that are permanently bent. Hammer toes are caused by hallux valgus or because your toes are squashed by poorly fitting shoes and/or socks. Hammer toes are most common in people who have bunions or high-arched feet.

Tailor's bunions (also called bunionettes) may develop as a sensitive bump on the smallest, outer toe. Hammertoes happen when there's an abnormal bend in the middle joint of a toe, causing the tip of the toe to bend and face downward.
A hammertoe has an abnormal bend in the middle joint of a toe. Mallet toe affects the joint nearest the toenail. Hammertoe and mallet toe usually occur in your second, third and fourth toes. Relieving the pain and pressure of hammertoe and mallet toe may involve changing your footwear and wearing shoe inserts.
A capsulotomy of the interphalangeal joint (CPT code 28272) is included in a hammertoe repair (CPT code 28285) performed on the same toe.

Hallux valgus is the most common deformity of the forefoot and the toes. 23% of 18-65 year olds and over 35% of those over 65 years have hallux valgus. Due to the noticeable form it's also referred to as a bunion or ganglion. Here the big toe moves out of its alignment and points toward the outside edge of the foot.
ICD-10 Code for Hallux valgus (acquired), right foot- M20. 11- Codify by AAPC.
Hallux valgus interphalangeus is a deformity of the big toe characterised by an abnormal (valgus) angulation between the two bones (proximal and distal phalanx) forming the end of the big toe. It is considered present if the two end bones (proximal and distal phalanx) forms an angle exceeding 10 degrees.
Bunions can also lead to other toe deformities, such as hammertoe. Many people with bunions suffer from discomfort and pain from the constant irritation, rubbing, and friction of the enlargement against shoes.
With a bunion, the big toe bends toward the second toe. Over time, the pressure this puts on the second toe can cause a hammertoe. A bunion and multiple hammertoes often will be addressed in one surgery.
What you may not know is that bunions and hammertoes commonly occur together in the same foot, and are interrelated in terms of how they develop. Simply put, having a bunion makes it more likely that you'll develop a hammertoe.
Bunions (also known as hallux valgus) occur when there is misalignment of the first metatarsal (one of five long bones that run from mid-foot to the toes) in relation to the big toe. The often-noticeable "bump" is not new bone or overgrowth of bone but actually the metatarsal itself.
A hammer toe or contracted toe is a deformity of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the second, third, or fourth toe causing it to be permanently bent, resembling a hammer. Mallet toe is a similar condition affecting the distal interphalangeal joint.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code M20.42 and a single ICD9 code, 735.4 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
