2018 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code M72.2

Plantar fascial fibromatosis

2016 2017 2018 Billable/Specific Code

• M72.2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
• The 2018 edition of ICD-10-CM M72.2 became effective on October 1, 2017.
• This is the American ICD-10-CM version of M72.2 - other international versions of ICD-10 M72.2 may differ.

• Bilateral plantar fasciitis

• Fibromatosis of plantar fascia of right foot
• Fibromatosis of right plantar fascia
• Left plantar fasciitis
• Plantar fasciitis
• Plantar fasciitis of left foot
• Plantar fasciitis of right foot
• Right plantar fasciitis

• A superficial fibromatosis arising from soft tissue of the plantar regions. It is characterized by the presence of spindle-shaped fibroblasts, hypercellularity, and an infiltrative growth pattern.
• An inflammation of the plantar fascia, the tissue along the bottom of your foot that connects the heel bone to the toes
• Inflammation of the thick tissue on the bottom of the foot (plantar fascia) causing heel pain. The plantar fascia (also called plantar aponeurosis) are bands of fibrous tissue extending from the calcaneal tuberosity to the toes. The etiology of plantar fasciitis remains controversial but is likely to involve a biomechanical imbalance. Though often presenting along with heel spur, they do not appear to be causally related.
