I am hunting a icd code for depressed skull @ birth. I'm not finding anything.
 
that will work. He doesnt state the cause of it, delivery injury or anything about how it got depressed. Thats why I was lost to congential or deformity. Thanks

What about 756.0-a congenital deformity of the skull and/or 754.0-skull depression. These were found under the heading of the underlined words.
 
Depresses skull..

I think you can code Dx 754.0 - Congential Musculoskeletal Deformities of skull, face and jaw.

U can find out the depressions in skull under this diagnosis.

Pratap.
