ICD-10 code: I63. 9 Cerebral infarction, unspecified.
Posterior cerebral artery syndrome is a condition whereby the blood supply from the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) is restricted, leading to a reduction of the function of the portions of the brain supplied by that vessel: the occipital lobe, the inferomedial temporal lobe, a large portion of the thalamus, and the ...

ICD-10-CM Code for Hemiplegia and hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting left non-dominant side I69. 354.
Obstruction in blood flow (ischemia) to the brain can lead to permanent damage. This is called a cerebrovascular accident (CVA). It is also known as cerebral infarction or stroke. Rupture of an artery with bleeding into the brain (hemorrhage) is called a CVA, too.
The left and right posterior cerebral artery arises from the bifurcation of the basilar artery, which occurs at the superior border of the pons, posterior to the dorsum sellae. From there, the posterior cerebral artery continues laterally along the superior border of the pons.
occipital lobeThe posterior cerebral artery (PCA) is one of a pair of cerebral arteries that supply oxygenated blood to the occipital lobe, part of the back of the human brain. The two arteries originate from the distal end of the basilar artery, where it bifurcates into the left and right posterior cerebral arteries.
occipital lobeThe Posterior Cerebral Artery (PCA) supplies the occipital lobe, the inferior part of the temporal lobe, and various deep structures including the thalamus and the posterior limb of the internal capsule.
Coding Guidelines Residual neurological effects of a stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) should be documented using CPT category I69 codes indicating sequelae of cerebrovascular disease. Codes I60-67 specify hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and monoplegia and identify whether the dominant or nondominant side is affected.
Acute Ischemic Stroke (ICD-10 code I63.
Residual neurological effects of a stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) should be documented using CPT category I69 codes indicating sequelae of cerebrovascular disease. Codes I60-67 specify hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and monoplegia and identify whether the dominant or nondominant side is affected.
Rarely, larger PCA strokes on the left side can cause an aphasia, right hemiparesis, and hemisensory loss. Larger right-sided strokes will cause a left hemiparesis and hemisensory loss. A PCA stem stroke will cause a hemiparesis, ocular motility disorder, and disturbances in consciousness, memory, and language.
Common Symptoms of Posterior Circulation Stroke Common presenting symptoms of PC stroke include vertigo, imbalance, unilateral limb weakness, slurred speech, double vision, headache, nausea, and vomiting. Exam findings include unilateral limb weakness, gait ataxia, limb ataxia, dysarthria, and nystagmus.
Patients with posterior cerebral artery (PCA) infarcts present for neurologic evaluation with symptoms including the following: Acute vision loss. Confusion. New onset posterior cranium headache.
The symptoms of a stroke include:lightheadedness.numbness.tingling on one side of your body.difficulty expressing your thoughts or ideas.difficulty with speech.a severe headache that lasts for a longer length of time than usual.More items...
