Q98.3
ICD-10-CMThis code identifies individuals who are phenotypically male but possess a 46, XX karyotype, indicating a chromosomal sex reversal. This condition often results from the translocation of the SRY gene from the Y chromosome to an X chromosome during paternal meiosis, leading to male development despite the absence of a Y chromosome.
Apply this code for patients presenting with male external genitalia but confirmed by genetic testing to have a 46, XX chromosomal constitution. Documentation should clearly state the karyotype analysis results and the patient's phenotypic sex. This is typically diagnosed during investigations for infertility, ambiguous genitalia, or other reproductive anomalies.
