There it is...: The code 711.89 is listed in the ICD-9-CM as "arthropathy associated with other infectious and parasitic diseases" arthropathy is defined as joint disease. Such as arthritis. The 9 in the code stands for multiple sites, which means there is more than one place of occurance. There would be other codes for the infectious and parasitic diseases.
