M67.20 identifies abnormal thickening of the synovial membrane at an unspecified anatomical site, used when the joint location is not documented or cannot be determined.
Synovial membrane thickening or overgrowth at an anatomical site not captured by any other specific M67.2x subcode — used when the affected joint or tendon sheath falls outside the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, hip, knee, ankle, or foot designations.
Synovial hypertrophy, not elsewhere classified, affecting multiple sites simultaneously — used when thickening of the synovial membrane cannot be attributed to a more specific condition and involves more than one anatomic location.
