Congenital absence of right foot and toe(s)

This code describes a birth defect characterized by the complete absence of the right foot and any or all of its associated toes. This is a severe form of congenital limb deficiency affecting the distal portion of the lower extremity.

Use this code when documentation clearly indicates a congenital absence of the entire right foot, including the toes, from birth. This code is appropriate for initial encounters and subsequent follow-up care related to this specific congenital anomaly.

• Ensure documentation specifies "congenital absence" and clearly identifies the right foot and toes.
• Distinguish from other congenital malformations of the foot, such as clubfoot or partial absence, which have different codes.
• Consider additional codes for any associated congenital anomalies or functional impairments.
