Carotid artery disease is also called carotid artery stenosis. The term refers to the narrowing of the carotid arteries. This narrowing is usually caused by the buildup of fatty substances and cholesterol deposits, called plaque. Carotid artery occlusion refers to complete blockage of the artery.
ICD-10 code R09. 89 for Other specified symptoms and signs involving the circulatory and respiratory systems is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
1: Carotid artery syndrome (hemispheric)
Carotid artery disease is caused by a buildup of plaques in arteries that deliver blood to your brain. Plaques are clumps of cholesterol, calcium, fibrous tissue and other cellular debris that gather at microscopic injury sites within the artery. This process is called atherosclerosis.
Carotid occlusive disease, also called carotid stenosis, is a condition in which one or both of the carotid arteries becomes narrowed or blocked. It is a serious condition that increases the risk of stroke if left untreated.
Renal artery stenosis is a decrease in blood flow through one or both of the main renal arteries or their branches. Renal artery occlusion is a complete blockage of blood flow through one or both of the main renal arteries or its branches.
The internal carotid arteries are branches of the common carotid arteries that bifurcate into the internal and external carotids at the level of the carotid sinus. [2] After this bifurcation, the internal carotids traverse through the base of the skull to reach the vital organs that they supply.
9: Fever, unspecified.

Your doctor will recommend carotid ultrasound if you have transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) or certain types of stroke and may recommend a carotid ultrasound if you have medical conditions that increase the risk of stroke, including: High blood pressure. Diabetes. High cholesterol.
Carotid artery stenosis can lead to a stroke. People who have carotid artery stenosis are at increased risk for a stroke, which can lead to disability or death. Sometimes, strokes can be mild and recoverable. In other cases, strokes are very large and devastating. Carotid stenosis can cause a stroke in two ways.
A network of blood vessels at the base of the brain, called the circle of Willis, can often supply the necessary blood flow. Many people function normally with one completely blocked carotid artery, provided they haven't had a disabling stroke.
If the narrowing of the carotid arteries becomes severe enough that blood flow is blocked, it can cause a stroke. If a piece of plaque breaks off it can also block blood flow to the brain. This too can cause a stroke.
Because of the low risk of stroke in asymptomatic patients, some experts recommend surgery only when the degree of stenosis is more than 80 percent, as was demonstrated by ECST investigators.
