M89.2: Other disorders of bone development and growth
Other disorders of bone development and growth, coded as M89.2 in the ICD-10 classification, refer to a range of conditions that affect the normal development and growth of bones. These disorders can be present at birth or may develop over time due to genetic factors, nutritional deficiencies, infections, or other underlying diseases. They usually involve abnormalities in the size, shape, or structural integrity of the bones. Common symptoms might include bone pain, deformity, impaired movement, and an increased risk of fractures. These disorders can affect any bone in the body, but certain conditions may predominantly focus on specific areas such as spine, long bones of the arms and legs, or the bones of the skull. It's important to note that progression and severity can vary greatly between different bone disorders and individuals affected.
