XVII: Congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities
Q80-Q89: Other congenital malformations
The ICD-10 code range Q80-Q89 refers to a group of conditions collectively termed "Other Congenital Malformations." These are a diverse set of medical conditions that an individual is born with, often caused by genetic factors, issues with chromosomes, or environmental factors during pregnancy. These malformations can affect various bodily systems and can be apparent at birth or identified later in life. They can involve various parts of the body including the skin, musculoskeletal system, digestive tract, or circulatory and respiratory systems. Some of these malformations might present physical abnormalities like unusual body shape or size, while others could lead to functional problems, for example, heart defects causing circulation issues. They may impact normal growth, physical abilities, and, at times, cognitive development. The progression, severity, and signs of these conditions can greatly vary from one individual to another.
