This reference covers the code structure, clinical context, documentation requirements, related codes, and billing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"ICD-10 Revisions: Stay Updated or Fall Behind\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bqAyb-BCA0w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What ICD-10 Code M24.7 covers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">M24.7 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for protrusio acetabuli. Billable means the code carries enough clinical detail to appear on a claim for reimbursement. According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/icd10cmtool.cdc.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">CDC\/NCHS ICD-10-CM tool<\/a>, M24.7 is valid for fiscal year 2026, covering October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026. Verify validity each October 1, when the annual update cycle takes effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike many entries in the M24 category, M24.7 does not carry laterality suffixes. There is no M24.71 for the right hip or M24.72 for the left. Fracture codes such as S42.131K carry a laterality digit, and M24.7 does not. The single code covers every presentation, which simplifies assignment but still leaves the note responsible for naming the affected hip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:separate;border-spacing:0;border-radius:12px;overflow:hidden;font-size:15px;line-height:1.5;margin:1.5em 0 2em;box-shadow:0 2px 12px rgba(0,0,0,0.08)\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">Field<\/th>\n<th style=\"background:#121D36;color:#fff;padding:14px 16px;text-align:left;font-weight:600;font-size:14px;letter-spacing:0.3px;border-bottom:2px solid #2BADD4\">Detail<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Code<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">M24.7<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Full description<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Protrusio acetabuli<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Billable\/specific<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Fiscal year validity<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">FY2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Chapter<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">M00-M99 (Diseases of the Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Block<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">M20-M25 (Other joint disorders)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Category<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">M24 (Other specific joint derangements)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #E8ECF0;background:#F9FAFB\">\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;font-weight:600;color:#121D36\">Laterality subcodes<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding:12px 16px;color:#374151\">None (single code regardless of hip affected)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where the code sits in the ICD-10-CM hierarchy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Knowing the parent-code chain helps when you are answering a documentation audit or appealing a payer denial. M24.7 sits four levels deep in ICD-10-CM, and each level narrows the clinical scope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Chapter M00-M99:<\/strong> Diseases of the Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue<\/li><li><strong>Block M20-M25:<\/strong> Other joint disorders<\/li><li><strong>Category M24:<\/strong> Other specific joint derangements<\/li><li><strong>Code M24.7:<\/strong> Protrusio acetabuli (billable\/specific)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cms.gov\/medicare\/coding-billing\/icd-10-codes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">CMS ICD-10 codes page<\/a> publishes the full tabular list each fiscal year. Check the complete M24 category annually, because adjacent codes occasionally pick up validity changes that a saved favorites list will not show you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is protrusio acetabuli?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Protrusio acetabuli is a hip joint disorder in which the acetabulum, or hip socket, protrudes medially into the pelvic cavity. The femoral head is displaced inward beyond the ilioischial line. That reduces joint space and restricts range of motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The condition presents in two forms. Primary or idiopathic protrusio acetabuli has no identified underlying cause and tends to occur in young women. Secondary protrusio acetabuli develops from a systemic or traumatic process that affects bone integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causes and risk factors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Secondary causes are more common in practice, and they are where the coding work sits. Each underlying condition has its own ICD-10 code, which must be documented and assigned alongside M24.7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Rheumatoid arthritis (RA):<\/strong> Inflammatory destruction of the acetabular rim is a well-recognized route to secondary protrusio. Assign the appropriate M05 or M06 code alongside M24.7.<\/li><li><strong>Paget&rsquo;s disease of bone:<\/strong> Abnormal bone remodeling weakens the acetabulum and allows medial protrusion. ICD-10 code M88 covers Paget&rsquo;s disease.<\/li><li><strong>Osteomalacia:<\/strong> Softening of bone from vitamin D deficiency or a phosphate disorder compromises acetabular integrity. Assign M83 for adult osteomalacia as applicable.<\/li><li><strong>Trauma:<\/strong> Acetabular fractures or repeated micro-trauma can produce progressive protrusion over time. Pelvic fractures such as S32.311G are coded from the injury chapter instead.<\/li><li><strong>Marfan syndrome:<\/strong> Connective tissue laxity is associated with both primary and secondary presentations.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Signs and symptoms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clinical presentation drives the documentation. The note has to support M24.7 with objective findings, not a radiology impression alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hip pain, typically groin-deep and worse with weight-bearing<\/li><li>Restricted range of motion, particularly internal rotation and abduction<\/li><li>Gait abnormality or antalgic limp<\/li><li>Progressive functional limitation in severe cases<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Synonyms and index terms<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ICD-10-CM alphabetic index maps several clinical terms to M24.7. Physician notes and orthopedic referrals often use one of these instead of the code description.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Acetabular protrusion<\/li><li>Hip socket protrusion<\/li><li>Medial protrusion of the acetabulum<\/li><li>Intrapelvic protrusion of acetabulum<\/li><li>Otto pelvis, an older eponym still appearing in legacy notes<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">None of these terms needs a different code. They all map to M24.7 in the index. When a note uses an eponym like Otto pelvis, confirm the clinical context matches protrusio before assigning, rather than coding from the synonym alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Coding guidelines and sequencing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Protrusio acetabuli follows the standard musculoskeletal sequencing rules in the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, published each year by CMS and NCHS.

Every one of those steps invites a transcription error, and each one delays submission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hip diagnoses travel across musculoskeletal specialties, so an <a href=\"https:\/\/pabau.com\/industry\/osteopathy-practice-software\/\">osteopathy practice software<\/a> record and a physical therapy EMR both need code search built in.

specific ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for protrusio acetabuli. That is a hip joint condition in which the acetabulum protrudes medially into the pelvic cavity. The code sits in category M24, within chapter M00-M99, and is valid for fiscal year 2026.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785497485425\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">Is M24.7 a billable ICD-10-CM code?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes. M24.7 carries enough clinical detail to be used on a claim without a more specific subcode. There are no laterality extensions, so no M24.71 or M24.72 exists.
