D68.5 vs M31.19

Can these codes be reported together?

No — do not report together. D68.5 carries an Excludes1 note covering M31.19: “thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (M31.19)”

Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
