ICD10 code of Carotid Artery Dissection and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for Carotid Artery Dissection? And the ICD9 code for Carotid Artery Dissection?
ICD-10 code for Carotid Artery Dissection: I77.71
ICD-9 code for Carotid Artery Dissection: 443.21
Carotid Artery Dissection is a medical condition characterized by a tear in the inner lining of the carotid artery, which supplies blood to the brain. This tear can lead to blood accumulating within the layers of the artery, causing narrowing or complete blockage of blood flow to the brain, potentially resulting in a stroke.
In the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10), the specific code for Carotid Artery Dissection is I77.71. This code falls under the category of "Other Disorders of Arteries and Arterioles" and is further classified as a nontraumatic dissection of the carotid artery. It is important to note that ICD-10 codes provide a standardized system for classifying and documenting medical diagnoses, allowing for accurate and consistent coding across healthcare practices.
In the previous version, the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision (ICD-9), the corresponding code for Carotid Artery Dissection was 443.21. This code fell under the category of "Other Peripheral Vascular Disease" and specified a nontraumatic dissection of the carotid artery.
It is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and proper coding of any medical condition.

As it is not a disease as opposed to a condition I was unable to find a ICD 10 code.
