what is the icd 9 code for hip mass
81.51 Total hip replacement Replacement of both femoral head and acetabulum by prosthesis Total reconstruction of hip
Periarticular sclerosis is increased bone density near a joint seen on X-ray, often due to chronic joint stress or osteoarthritis. Spurring along the superior acetabulum refers to bony growths at the top of the hip socket, typically seen in conditions like osteoarthritis or hip impingement. These findings can indicate degenerative changes in the hip joint.
what is the icd code for (L) hip infection

Hip revision has different ICD-9 codes. 00.70 is the code for hip revision of the acetabular and femoral components. 00.71 is for acetabular component only and 00.72 is for femoral components. 81.53 is any hip revision that is not specified.
If you are coding for a facility for procedures you need 2 codes to completely capture the service: If it is for a total hip arthroplasty then you would code 81.51 plus the code for the bearing surface of the implant: 00.74 for metal on polyethelene, 00.75 metal on metal, 00.76 ceramic on ceramic, 00.77 ceramic on polyethelene. If it is for a partial hip arthroplasty then 81.52 plus the code for the bearing surface of the implant (00.74-00.77)
