Type 1 Excludes

A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

Clinical Terms in This Code Range

Definitions from the National Library of Medicine for conditions coded in the M71 range.

Bursitis

Inflammation or irritation of a SYNOVIAL BURSA, the fibrous sac that acts as a cushion between moving structures of bones, muscles, tendons or skin.

About the M71 Code Range

Bursa problems here include abscesses, infection-related bursitis, cysts, calcium deposits, and other bursa disorders.

The subdivisions first separate abscesses (M71.0), other infective bursitis (M71.1), and cysts of the space behind the knee (M71.2) from other bursal cysts (M71.3). Separate branches cover calcium deposits (M71.4), other bursitis (M71.5), other specified bursopathies (M71.8), and unspecified bursopathy (M71.9). Most branches then distinguish the affected site. The cyst branch for the space behind the knee instead distinguishes right, left, or unspecified knee.
