ICD-10-CM Code for Age-related osteoporosis with current pathological fracture M80. 0.
M85. 8 Other specified disorders of bone density and structure.
A pathologic bone fracture due to osteoporosis. It is generally caused by a fall from a standing height or lower and usually involves the spine, hip, or wrist. Breaks in bones resulting from low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration characteristic of osteoporosis.
Pathological spine fractures are the result of an underlying disease process that affects the spine. They are called vertebral compression fractures and are common, and frequent in the elderly. They may be caused by osteoporosis, Paget's disease, other diseases and spinal infections (osteomyelitis).
ICD-Code M81. 0 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Age-Related Osteoporosis without Current Pathological Fracture.
Osteoporosis without current pathological fracture A condition that is marked by a decrease in bone mass and density, causing bones to become fragile.
For patients with a history of osteoporosis fracture, status code Z87. 310, personal history of (healed) osteoporosis fracture, should come after the code from M81. ∎ Osteoporosis with current pathological fracture: Category M80 is used for patients who have a current pathologic fracture at the time of the encounter.
Wedge compression fracture of first lumbar vertebra, initial encounter for closed fracture. S32. 010A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S32.
Other osteoporosis without current pathological fracture M81. 8 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M81. 8 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Pathologic fractures are also frequently caused by osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a condition of weak and brittle bones that is most common in older women.
A vertebral fracture may occur spontaneously and thus be more easily identified as occurring due to a disease (e.g. osteoporosis) and, therefore, coded as a pathologic fracture (ICD9 733.13).
Listen to pronunciation. (PA-thuh-LAH-jik FRAK-sher) A broken bone caused by disease, often by the spread of cancer to the bone.
A pathological fracture is one in which breaks in the bone were caused by an underlying disease. Examples of pathological fractures include those caused by cancer (see Figure 1), osteoporosis, or other bone diseases.
Recovery can take anywhere from a couple of weeks to several months, depending on the affected body part. If the fracture was caused by a condition that makes it hard for your bones to heal, you may need additional treatment, such as surgery.
Pathologic fractures occur through areas of weakened bone attributed to either primary malignant lesions, benign lesions, metastasis, or underlying metabolic abnormalities, with the common factor being altered skeletal biomechanics secondary to pathologic bone.
The most common type of compression fracture is a wedge fracture, in which the front of the vertebral body collapses but the back does not, meaning that the bone assumes a wedge shape. Sometimes, more than one vertebra fractures, a condition called multiple compression fractures.
Reduction of bone mass without alteration in the composition of bone, leading to fractures. Primary osteoporosis can be of two major types: postmenopausal osteoporosis (osteoporosis, postmenopausal) and age-related or senile osteoporosis.
A disorder characterized by reduced bone mass, with a decrease in cortical thickness and in the number and size of the trabeculae of cancellous bone ( but normal chemical composition), resulting in increased fracture incidence.
A condition of reduced bone mass, with decreased cortical thickness and a decrease in the number and size of the trabeculae of cancellous bone (but normal chemical composition), resulting in increased fracture incidence. Osteoporosis is classified as primary (type 1, postmenopausal osteoporosis; type 2, age-associated osteoporosis; and idiopathic, which can affect juveniles, premenopausal women, and middle-aged men) and secondary osteoporosis (which results from an identifiable cause of bone mass loss).
Loss of bone mass and strength due to nutritional, metabolic, or other factors, usually resulting in deformity or fracture; a major public health problem of the elderly, especially women. Metabolic disorder associated with fractures of the femoral neck, vertebrae, and distal forearm.
It occurs commonly in women within 15-20 years after menopause, and is caused by factors associated with menopause including estrogen deficiency. Osteoporosis makes your bones weak and more likely to break. Anyone can develop osteoporosis, but it is common in older women.

In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
Osteoporosis without current pathological fracture. If the patient does not have current pathological fracture, you should select a code from the M81 series (even if the patient had pathological fracture in the past). A sixth digit indicates laterality. For example:
Risk factors for osteoporosis are aging, hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiency, and osteomalacia. Osteoporosis is an asymptomatic unless complications (e.g., fracture) occur. Loss of bone mass leads to loss of bone strength, such that even a trivial trauma may be severe enough to cause a fracture.
Other osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, which includes: The M80 series of codes is appropriate for either age-related osteoporosis or other osteoporosis, with current pathological frac ture.
Causes may include senility (old age), inadequate intake of calcium and vitamin D, and protein deficiency.
Osteoporosis also may be related to endocrinal conditions, such as Cushing syndrome, hyperthyroid state, thyrotoxicosis, and diabetes mellitus. Finally, osteoporosis may be drug induced, for instance as a result of long-term steroid therapy.
