Venous Stasis Ulcer w/o varicose vein = I87. 2 per ICD-10 index, which is venous insufficiency.
Venous ulcers most often form around the ankles. Venous ulcers typically occur because of damage to the valves inside the leg veins. These valves control the blood pressure inside the veins. They allow it to drop when you walk.
Full-Thickness – A full-Thickness wound indicates that damage extends below the epidermis and dermis (all layers of the skin) into the subcutaneous tissue or beyond (into muscle, bone, tendons, etc.).
* Diabetic foot ulcers are often due to both arterial disease (involving the microcirculation as well as large vessels) and neuropathic disease.
