2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D82.2 – Immunodeficiency with short-limbed stature

What it is

D82.2 identifies an inherited immunodeficiency syndrome associated with short-limbed stature. Use it when documentation links abnormal growth with impaired immune function in the same diagnosis.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include short-limbed dwarfism and recurrent or unusual infections due to immune deficiency. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use D82.2 when the provider documents immunodeficiency with short-limbed stature, or a named syndrome with that description. It may appear in pediatric records, genetics notes, or problem lists when both growth abnormality and immune dysfunction are confirmed. Check documentation if the record is incomplete.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for short stature without immunodeficiency, or for isolated immune disorders without skeletal findings. If the chart does not clearly connect both conditions, check documentation.

Coding tip

Confirm that the provider explicitly documents the combined syndrome before assigning D82.2.
