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!
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.

ICD-10 Code for Other chondrocalcinosis, right knee- M11. 261- Codify by AAPC.
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.
Also called calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease or CPPD, the common term "pseudogout" was coined for the condition's similarity to gout. Crystal deposits within a joint cause both conditions, although the type of crystal differs for each condition.
M25. 561 Pain in right knee - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
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.
M10.99 – Gout, Unspecified. ICD-Code M10. 9 is a billable ICD-10 code used for healthcare diagnosis reimbursement of Gout, Unspecified.
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.
ICD-10 code M19. 90 for Unspecified osteoarthritis, unspecified site is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Arthropathies .
Crystalline arthropathies are a group of joint disorders caused by deposits of crystals in joints and the soft tissues around them. The most common types are gout and calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD). Over time, crystalline arthropathies can lead to joint damage and occasionally kidney disease.
Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystal deposition disease, also known as chondrocalcinosis, pseudogout and pyrophosphate arthropathy is a rheumatologic disorder with varied symptoms and signs arising from the accumulation of crystals of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate in the connective tissues.
