Other and unspecified disorders of nose and nasal sinuses (J34) ICD-10-CM
The J34 code range covers other and unspecified disorders of nose and nasal sinuses with 25 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. 19 of them are billable and valid for claim submission in fiscal year 2027, and the category headers group them but cannot themselves be billed.
Type 2 Excludes
A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.

About the J34 Code Range
These disorders affect the nose or nasal sinuses. They include abscesses, cysts, a crooked nasal septum, enlarged nasal turbinates, and other specified or unspecified problems.
The first subdivisions separate these conditions: J34.0 identifies nose abscesses, furuncles, and carbuncles; J34.1 identifies cysts and mucoceles. J34.2 identifies a crooked nasal septum, and J34.3 identifies enlarged nasal turbinates.
Within other specified disorders, J34.82 separates nasal valve collapse into internal, external, or unspecified locations. Internal and external collapse split further into static, dynamic, or unspecified forms. J34.83 identifies tooth-related sinusitis by sinus location, with an unspecified option. J34.9 identifies an unspecified nose or nasal sinus disorder.
FY 2027 changes: The FY 2027 ICD-10-CM update, effective October 1, 2026, added J34.830, J34.831, J34.832, J34.833 and J34.839.
