Aneurysm of artery of lower extremity 1 I72.4 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. 2 The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM I72.4 became effective on October 1, 2019. 3 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of I72.4 - other international versions of ICD-10 I72.4 may differ.

Ruptured aneurysm: As you can see, the new aortic aneurysm codes are distinguished between whether there was a rupture or not. Codes I71.10 through I71.13, I71.30 through I71.33, and I71.50 through I71.52 will offer more specificity when the patient has a ruptured aortic aneurysm.
2018/2019 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I67.1. Cerebral aneurysm, nonruptured. 2016 2017 2018 2019 Billable/Specific Code. I67.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
A femoral aneurysm is bulging and weakness in the wall of the femoral artery, located in the thigh. Femoral aneurysms can burst, which may cause life-threatening, uncontrolled bleeding. The aneurysm may also cause a blood clot, potentially resulting in leg amputation.
A pseudoaneurysm happens as a result of injury to a blood vessel. The artery leaks blood, which then pools near the damaged spot. It's different from a true aneurysm, which happens when the wall of a blood vessel stretches and forms a bulge. Most pseudoaneurysms are complications from medical procedures.
Pathological outpouching or sac-like dilatation in the wall of any blood vessel (arteries or veins) or the heart (heart aneurysm). It indicates a thin and weakened area in the wall which may later rupture.
I67. 1 - Cerebral aneurysm, nonruptured. ICD-10-CM.
The three types of cerebral aneurysms are: berry (saccular), fusiform and mycotic. The most common, "berry aneurysm," occurs more often in adults. It can range in size from a few millimeters to more than two centimeters. A family history of aneurysms may increase your risk.
A common cause of pseudoaneurysm is trauma to the aorta, at the junction of the fixed aorta and the descending thoracic aorta—the aortic isthmus. Sheering and bending stress may injure this section of the aorta. Either blunt or penetrating trauma may cause pseudoaneurysms.
Four Main Types of AneurysmsA saccular (berry) aneurysm bulges from one side of an artery.A giant aneurysm can involve more than one artery and can be over 2.5 centimeters wide.A fusiform aneurysm bulges from all sides of an artery.A mycotic aneurysm is caused by an infected artery wall.
The most common location of an aneurysm is the aorta, which carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the body. The thoracic aorta is the short segment of the aorta in the chest cavity.
There are three types of aneurysms: abdominal aortic, thoracic aortic, and cerebral.

Aneurysms are classified by location, etiology, or other characteristics. Pathological, blood-filled distension of blood vessel. Protruding sac in the wall of a vein, artery, or heart, frequently caused by microbial infection; may present as pain, pressure on nearby organs, or cardiac weakening.
Medicines and surgery are the two main treatments for aneurysms. Bulging or ballooning in an area of an artery secondary to arterial wall weakening. Pathological outpouching or sac-like dilatation in the wall of any blood vessel (arteries or veins) or the heart (heart aneurysm).
Most aneurysms occur in the aorta, the main artery traveling from the heart through the chest and abdomen. Aneurysms also can happen in arteries in the brain, heart and other parts of the body. If an aneurysm in the brain bursts, it causes a stroke. Aneurysms can develop and become large before causing any symptoms.
