Reduction defects of lower limb (Q72)

Browse all the diagnosis codes used for reduction defects of lower limb (q72). For easy navigation, the diagnosis codes are sorted in alphabetical order and grouped by sections. Each section is clearly marked with its description, and the corresponding three-digit code range. This format makes it simple to browse diagnosis codes in this chapter or section and find what you're looking for. We've also added green checkmark icons to label billable codes, and red warning icons for non-billable ones. This makes it easy to identify which codes can be billed.

Clinical Information

Ectromelia - Gross hypo- or aplasia of one or more long bones of one or more limbs. The concept includes amelia, hemimelia, phocomelia, and sirenomelia.

Ectromelia virus - A species of ORTHOPOXVIRUS infecting mice and causing a disease that involves internal organs and produces characteristic skin lesions.

Ectromelia, Infectious - A viral infection of mice, causing edema and necrosis followed by limb loss.

Leg Length Inequality - A condition in which one of a pair of legs fails to grow as long as the other, which could result from injury or surgery.

Orthopoxvirus - A genus of the family POXVIRIDAE, subfamily CHORDOPOXVIRINAE, comprising many species infecting mammals. Viruses of this genus cause generalized infections and a rash in some hosts. The type species is VACCINIA VIRUS.
