Chronic vascular disorders of intestine. K55.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM K55.1 became effective on October 1, 2019. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of K55.1 - other international versions of ICD-10 K55.1 may differ.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM K55. 059 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of K55.
Where is the superior mesenteric artery? The superior mesenteric artery is in the midsection of the digestive tract (midgut). It originates from the aorta between the celiac artery and renal arteries. The celiac artery supplies blood to the liver, spleen and stomach.

The superior mesenteric artery is the second major branch of the abdominal aorta. It originates on the anterior surface of the aorta at the level of the L1 vertebrae, approximately 1 cm inferior to the celiac trunk and superior to the renal arteries.
The inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) is another major blood supply to the lower GI tract (Fig. 25.4). It is located at the level of L2-L4 (most often at the L3-L4 disk space level, 2–3 cm above the aortic bifurcation). The IMA supplies the distal transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and rectum.
Mesenteric artery stenosis is the narrowing of the arteries that supply blood to the intestines. These arteries are called the mesenteric arteries.
In mesenteric ischemia, a blockage in an artery cuts off blood flow to a portion of the intestine. Mesenteric ischemia (mez-un-TER-ik is-KEE-me-uh) occurs when narrowed or blocked arteries restrict blood flow to your small intestine.
Chronic mesenteric ischemia, also called intestinal angina, refers to episodic or constant hypoperfusion of the small intestine that can occur, typically in patients with multivessel mesenteric stenosis or occlusion. The clinical features, diagnosis, and management of chronic mesenteric ischemia will be reviewed here.
Mesenteric artery thrombosis (MAT) is a condition involving occlusion of the arterial vascular supply of the intestinal system. It is a severe and potentially fatal illness typically of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA), which provides the primary arterial supply to the small intestine and ascending colon.
