The ICD-10 code for Morquio mucopolysaccharidoses, unspecified is E76.219.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code E76.219 – Morquio mucopolysaccharidoses, unspecified

What it is

E76.219 identifies Morquio mucopolysaccharidosis when the record does not specify a more exact type. Use it for this inherited lysosomal storage disorder when documentation only states “Morquio” or “Morquio syndrome.”

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly reported findings include skeletal dysplasia, short stature, joint laxity, and abnormal bone development, but you should code only what the provider documents.

When to use this code

Use this code when the clinician diagnoses Morquio mucopolysaccharidosis but does not document a more specific subtype. It also fits charting that confirms the disorder without further detail. If the note names a different mucopolysaccharidosis, do not use E76.219.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for other mucopolysaccharidoses, metabolic disorders, or nonspecific skeletal abnormalities without a documented Morquio diagnosis. Check documentation if the type is unclear.

Coding tip

Assign E76.219 only when Morquio mucopolysaccharidosis is explicitly documented and no more specific code is supported.
