Clinicаl Cоding Wоrkоut Chаpter 4, question 4.74 Hospitаl Summary: A male new-born, born at this hospital with pre axial polydactyly of the thumbs, bilateral claw hands and claw feet, had a harsh murmur heard posteriorly and faint femoral pulses on initial new-born exam. The new-born was 39 weeks gestation and was born vaginally. Cardiology was consulted and determined a diagnosis of coarctation of the aorta and a very small conoventricular ventricular septal defect. The newborn had surgical repair of the coarctation but the VSD could not be repaired at this Young age due to closeness to the aortic valve. Cardiology will follow to manage the VSD. Orthopedics was consulted for the hand and feet deformities and will schedule serial repairs after the age of about one Year. The family will be seen by Medical Genetics as an outpatient for possible determination of a syndrome that encompasses this combination of defects. Assign the correct diagnostic code(s)-
