Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. I82.431 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of acute embolism and thrombosis of right popliteal vein. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
I82.439 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
ICD-10-CM Code for Acute embolism and thrombosis of left popliteal vein I82. 432.
Popliteal vein thrombosis is a type of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which is also called deep vein thrombosis (DVT). It is potentially life-threatening because the thrombus can sometimes break free and travel through the heart to the lungs. A thrombus that travels to the lungs is known as a pulmonary embolism (PE).
Proximal DVT is one that is located in the popliteal, femoral, or iliac veins. Isolated distal DVT has no proximal component, is located below the knee, and is confined to the calf veins (peroneal, posterior, anterior tibial, and muscular veins) (table 1).
I82. 432 - Acute embolism and thrombosis of left popliteal vein | ICD-10-CM.
Popliteal vein thrombosis happens when a blood clot blocks one of the blood vessels behind your knees. It's a serious condition, but it can sometimes be mistaken for a less-dangerous condition called a Baker's cyst.
The popliteal vein is a deep vein of the leg. It drains blood away from the leg into the femoral vein, which drains blood to the inferior vena cava to return to the right atrium of the heart. The deep veins contain valves just like the superficial veins of the body.
Treatment with anticoagulation is the accepted standard of care for DVT involving the proximal leg veins, specifically, the popliteal, femoral, and iliac veins.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot (thrombus) forms within one of the deep veins. While DVT can occur in any deep vein, it most commonly occurs in the veins of the pelvis, calf, or thigh.
Distal DVT encompasses thromboses located below the knee in the calf veins (ie, the popliteal vein is not involved). Most calf vein DVTs are located in the posterior tibial and peroneal veins while anterior tibial and muscular vein DVTs are uncommon. Distal DVT can only be detected by whole leg ultrasonography.
ICD-10 Code for Acute embolism and thrombosis of unspecified deep veins of lower extremity- I82. 40- Codify by AAPC.
The popliteal vein is located at the posterior, or back, of the knee. It is responsible for the majority of the lower legs' venous return. 1 It is sometimes called the femoropopliteal vein.
453.40: venous embolism and thrombosis of unspecified deep vessels of lower extremity.
The ICD code I82 is used to code Thrombosis. Thrombosis (Greek: θρόμβωσις) is the formation of a blood clot (thrombus; Greek: θρόμβος) inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood through the circulatory system. When a blood vessel is injured, the body uses platelets (thrombocytes) and fibrin to form a blood clot to prevent blood loss.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code I82.431 and a single ICD9 code, 453.41 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
