ICD-10 Code K63.4 – Enteroptosis (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code K63.4 – Enteroptosis
What it is
Enteroptosis means downward displacement or drooping of the intestines. Use this code when documentation names enteroptosis or intestinal ptosis, and the record does not identify a more specific disorder.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Patients may have vague abdominal discomfort, a sense of fullness, or symptoms related to organ displacement, but these findings are not specific to coding without clear provider support.
When to use this code
Use K63.4 when the provider documents enteroptosis as the diagnosis. It may also apply when the chart clearly describes drooping or descent of the intestines and links the finding to the patient’s condition. Check documentation if the note uses overlapping terms.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for general abdominal pain, constipation, or nonspecific gastrointestinal complaints without a documented diagnosis. If the record describes a different type of prolapse or hernia, code that condition instead.
Coding tip
Verify the provider’s exact term and avoid assuming enteroptosis from imaging alone.
