ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code M62.261 [convert to ICD-9-CM] Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, right lower leg
Atherosclerosis of native arteries of left leg with ulceration of other part of foot. I70.245 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM I70.245 became effective on October 1, 2018.
Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, left lower leg M62. 262 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 M62. 262 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Chronic limb ischaemia is peripheral arterial disease that results in a symptomatic reduced blood supply to the limbs. It is typically caused by atherosclerosis (rarely vasculitis) and will commonly affect the lower limbs (however the upper limbs and gluteals can also be affected).
A: ICD-10-CM code I24. 8 would be used for demand ischemia where the patient did not have a current myocardial infarction (MI). This code also covers other forms of ischemic heart diseases.

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is considered the most severe pattern of peripheral artery disease. It is defined by the presence of chronic ischemic rest pain, ulceration or gangrene attributable to the occlusion of peripheral arterial vessels.
Chronic limb-threatening ischemia is distinguished from acute limb ischemia by a duration of symptoms that is longer than two weeks [3-5]. (See "Clinical features and diagnosis of lower extremity peripheral artery disease".)
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a severe blockage in the arteries of the lower extremities, which markedly reduces blood-flow. It is a serious form of peripheral arterial disease, or PAD, but less common than claudication.

Ischemia is a condition in which the blood flow (and thus oxygen) is restricted or reduced in a part of the body. Cardiac ischemia is the name for decreased blood flow and oxygen to the heart muscle.

Conditions that can cause myocardial ischemia include: Coronary artery disease (atherosclerosis). Plaques made up mostly of cholesterol build up on your artery walls and restrict blood flow. Atherosclerosis is the most common cause of myocardial ischemia.
Chronic critical limb ischemia is manifested by pain at rest, nonhealing wounds and gangrene. Ischemic rest pain is typically described as a burning pain in the arch or distal foot that occurs while the patient is recumbent but is relieved when the patient returns to a position in which the feet are dependent.
Critical limb ischemia can be life-threatening. The mortality rate at one year following diagnosis is 24%, and it rises to 60% at five years. Critical limb ischemia is a severe blockage in the arteries of the lower extremities, which significantly reduces blood flow.
Critical limb ischemia requires prompt treatment. Restoring proper blood flow to your hands and feet can help reduce the chances that you'll need an amputation. Your healthcare provider may recommend: Medications to prevent clots, reduce blood pressure and lower cholesterol.
The updates for critical limb ischemia went into effect on October 1, 2020.
