9: Disorder of bone, unspecified.
Other specified disorders of bone, other site M89. 8X8 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 M89. 8X8 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The consensus of the top coding professionals I have had conversations feel ICD-9-CM - 733.99 Sesamoiditis = ICD-10-CM-M77. 8 is the best one to use. Other enthesopathies, not elsewhere classified (NEC).
Under ICD-10-CM, the term “Osteopenia” is indexed to ICD-10-CM subcategory M85. 8- Other specified disorders of bone density and structure, within the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic Index.
A bone lesion is considered a bone tumor if the abnormal area has cells that divide and multiply at higher-than-normal rates to create a mass in the bone. The term "tumor" does not indicate whether an abnormal growth is malignant (cancerous) or benign, as both benign and malignant lesions can form tumors in the bone.
Also known as bone lesions or osteolytic lesions, lytic lesions are spots of bone damage that result from cancerous plasma cells building up in your bone marrow. Your bones can't break down and regrow (your doctor may call this remodel) as they should.
The hallux sesamoids are ovoid-shaped ossicles, separated from each other by the intersesamoidal ridge. There is a medial (tibial) and lateral (fibular) hallux sesamoid, which are embedded within the substance of the medial and lateral slips of the tendon of the flexor hallucis brevis muscle respectively 1.
Anatomy. The two sesamoid bones of the big toe metatarsophalangeal joint are contained within the tendons of Flexor Hallucis Brevis and forms portion of the plantar plate. There are two sesamoids, tibial (medial) and fibular (lateral) sesamoids.
In a normal foot, the sesamoids are two pea-shaped bones located in the ball of the foot beneath the big toe joint. Acting as a pulley for tendons, the sesamoids help the big toe move normally and provide leverage when the big toe pushes off during walking and running.

DXA (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry) measures the spine, hip, or total body. Doctors consider this test the most useful and reliable for checking bone density. QCT (quantitative computed tomography) usually measures the spine, but it can test other sites, too.
