Why do congenital heart defects occur? Most of the time, the cause isn’t known. Although the reason defects occur is presumed to be genetic, only a few genes have been discovered that have been linked to heart defects. Rarely, the ingestion of some drugs and the occurrence of some infections during pregnancy can cause defects.
Congenital heart defects can increase the risk of infection of the heart tissue (endocarditis), which can lead to new heart valve problems. Heart rhythm problems. Heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias) can be caused by a congenital heart defect or from scarring that forms after surgery to correct a congenital heart defect.

If coded, the ICD-10 code is Q89. 9 (Congenital malformation, unspecified).
V15. 1 - Personal history of surgery to heart and great vessels, presenting hazards to health. ICD-10-CM.
Coding Clinic has advised to assign code 759.89, Other specified anomalies, on several occasions for congenital syndromes that are not indexed to a specific code. Also in several instances, the ICD-9-CM index will direct the coder to code 759.89 for some congenital anomalies.
Additional codes should be assigned for manifestations that are not an inherent component. If a congenital malformation or deformity has been corrected, a personal history code should be used to identify the history of the malformation or deformity.

Multiple congenital anomaly is the occurrence of two or more major anomalies that are unrelated. This means that the major anomalies are presumed to be a random association, and do not constitute a sequence or a previously recognized syndrome.
Birth defects can occur during any stage of pregnancy. Most birth defects occur in the first 3 months of pregnancy, when the organs of the baby are forming. This is a very important stage of development. However, some birth defects occur later in pregnancy.
