2025 ICD-10-CM code Q70.31

Webbed toes of the right foot.

This code is not for use on the maternal record. Use codes from Chapter XVI if reporting this condition on a pregnant woman's record. Code also excludes inborn errors of metabolism (E70-E88).

Medical necessity for treatment (e.g., surgery) depends on the severity of the webbing and any functional limitations or pain it causes.

In simple words: Webbed toes on the right foot is a birth defect where the toes are connected by skin.

This code represents a congenital condition where the toes of the right foot are joined by a web of skin.

Example 1: A newborn infant is examined and found to have webbing between two toes on their right foot. This condition affects only the skin and not the bones of the toes., A child presents with difficulty wearing shoes due to webbing between their right foot's second and third toes. The child's pediatrician recommends surgical separation of the toes to improve comfort and function., During a routine physical examination, a teenager is noted to have complete syndactyly of two toes on their right foot, with the bones of the affected toes also fused. They have no functional limitations and elect not to undergo surgical correction.

Documentation should specify the toes affected (e.g., second and third toes), laterality (right foot), and whether the syndactyly is complete or incomplete (i.e., involves bone or just soft tissue).
