- Q20.0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

Type 1 ExcludesType 1 Excludes Help
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as Q20.0. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

Q20.0:
- Common arterial trunk (truncus arteriosus)
- Common truncus arteriosus
Clinical Information
- A congenital anomaly caused by the failed development of truncus arteriosus into separate aorta and pulmonary artery. It is characterized by a single arterial trunk that forms the outlet for both heart ventricles and gives rise to the systemic, pulmonary, and coronary arteries. It is always accompanied by a ventricular septal defect.
- A rare congenital cardiovascular disorder characterized by the failure of the embryologic structure truncus arteriosus to divide into the aorta and pulmonary trunk. It results in the presence of a single vessel instead of two vessles leading out of the heart. Clinical signs and symptoms include cyanosis that is present at birth, poor growth, dyspnea, tachypnea, arrhythmia, cardiomegaly, and heart failure. If it is not surgically repaired, it leads to death.
Present On AdmissionPOA Help
"Present On Admission" is defined as present at the time the order for inpatient admission occurs — conditions that develop during an outpatient encounter, including emergency department, observation, or outpatient surgery, are considered POA.
- Q20.0 is considered exempt from POA reporting.
ICD-10-CM Q20.0 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v40.0):
- 306 Cardiac congenital and valvular disorders with mcc
- 307 Cardiac congenital and valvular disorders without mcc
