History: A complete assessment of the patient, performed by a qualified multidisciplinary team, includes identification of risk factors for chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), development of VLU, VLU recurrence and delayed healing. Patient's concerns and psychosocial status should also be assessed.

ICD-10 code: I87. 2 Venous insufficiency (chronic)(peripheral)
Venous Stasis Ulcer w/o varicose vein = I87. 2 per ICD-10 index, which is venous insufficiency.
I87. 2 - Venous insufficiency (chronic) (peripheral). ICD-10-CM.
ICD-10 code L97 for Non-pressure chronic ulcer of lower limb, not elsewhere classified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue .
Venous ulcers (also known as venous stasis ulcers or nonhealing wounds) are open wounds occurring around the ankle or lower leg. They do not heal for weeks or months, and occasionally persist longer.
A common type of PVD is venous insufficiency, which occurs when the valves in the leg veins don't shut properly during blood's return to the heart. As a result, blood flows backward and pools in the veins.
Chronic venous hypertension (idiopathic) with ulcer of left lower extremity. I87. 312 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I87.
Chronic venous hypertension occurs when there's increased pressure inside your veins. The term chronic venous hypertension is a medical term for what is more descriptively called chronic venous insufficiency.
The most common types of peripheral venous disease include: Chronic venous insufficiency – This occurs when the walls and/or valves in the veins are not working effectively, making it difficult for blood to return to the heart. Varicose veins – These are gnarled, enlarged veins that usually occur in the legs.

ICD-10 Code for Non-pressure chronic ulcer of other part of foot- L97. 5- Codify by AAPC.
Full thickness skin loss involving damage or necrosis of subcutaneous tissue that may extend down to, but not through, underlying fascia. The ulcer presents clinically as a deep crater with or without undermining of adjacent tissue.
[1] VLU can be defined as an open skin lesion of the leg or foot that occurs in an area affected by venous hypertension , often caused by chronic venous insufficiency. [2] It is a chronic condition, with recurrence rate within 3 months after wound closure as high as 70%. [1] Thirty-five percent of people with VLU experience four or more episodes. [3] [4]
Venous disease is a chronic condition that can be characterized by periods of ulceration (i.e. an open wound) followed by healing and then recurrence. [8] . Venous Leg Ulcers (VLUs) are a relatively common, complex type of wound that have a negative impact on people’s lives and incur high costs for health services.
Ulcer exudate biomarkers measurement with Multiplex ELISA: a single center study found the biomarkers granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and matrix metalloprotease-13 (MMP-13) to be accurate predictive biomarkers of VLU healing. Results suggested that VLUs with GM-CSF values greater than 29.5 pg/mL or with MMP-13 values greater than 962.2 pg/mL in their exudate will not decrease in size (that is, the the VLU is nonhealing), and thus treatment plan should be reassessed. [48] While results are promising, further validation and development of a point-of-care test are needed before use in clinical practice.
Venous Leg Ulcers (VLU) are relatively common, affecting 1% of the population in the U.S. This topic discusses treatment and prevention of VLU. Evidence-based management of venous ulcer, including a section for clinicians on patient education. Concise Algorithm for Management of Venous ulcer for use of point-of-care.
Documentation of VLU is important to assess healing progress, as they determine whether a treatment plan should be continued or not . VLU progress should be recorded weekly or sooner if significant change.
Arterial ulcers: typically painful, and punched out or stellate in appearance. The surrounding skin is red and taut. Some arterial ulcers are pale; others may have a black or yellow eschar.
Injectable drugs: repeated injections of illicit or not illicit drugs into the lower limb veins results in CVI. Increased risk for VLU persists even after prolonged periods free from injecting. [29] [32]
