Hey,
As per I-10 Index to Diseases & Injuries,
Arthropathy => (See also Arthritis)
Arthritis => Spine => (See also Spondylopathy, inflammatory)
Spondylopathy, inflammatory => M46.90
a) Cervical : M46.92
b) Cervicothoracic : M46.93
c) Lumbar : M46.96
d) Lumbosacral : M46.97
e) Multiple: M46.99
Now, for effusion, I-10 will lead you to -Effusion => Spine => See Meningitis, however, I beleive this has to be coded with Other Disorder of spine => See also Dorsopathy => M53.9.
Hope this helps!!!
