Our docs quite often use "right atrial mass" as their diagnosis when doing a TEE. Is there a better diagnosis code to use than 786.6? I think your best option would be 429.89 (Other ill-defined heart diseases; other) I also have used dx 212.7 for atrial mass.
So dilated left atrium is referring to a dilated chamber of the heart. There are 4 chambers of the heart, the Right and Left Atrium and the Right and Left Ventricle. If you go to your ICD-10-CM index, go to dilatation, there is no option for atrium, or heart chamber, but, there is for "ventricle" being one of the chambers of the heart.

The ICD-10-CM code I51.89 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like abnormality of atrial septum, abnormality of atrioventricular valve, abnormality of left atrial appendage, abnormality of right atrial appendage, abnormality of tricuspid subvalvar apparatus , abscess at site of systemic to pulmonary arterial shunt, etc.

Nonrheumatic aortic valve disorder, unspecified I35. 9 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 I35. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.

The left atrial thrombus is a known complication of atrial fibrillation and rheumatic mitral valve disease, especially in the setting of an enlarged left atrium. If not detected and properly treated, it can lead to devastating thromboembolic complications.

An atrial myxoma is a noncancerous tumor in the upper left or right side of the heart. It most often grows on the wall that separates the two sides of the heart. This wall is called the atrial septum.
Cardiac masses include tumours, thrombi, vegetations, calcific lesions and other rare conditions. Unlike most other organs, the malignant behaviour in the heart has haemodynamic consequences due to blood flow obstruction, embolism and electrical or mechanical dysfunction.
Left atrium enlargement (LAE) is when the left side of the heart enlarges or swells. It is often present in people with high blood pressure and heart valve issues. Doctors will work to find the underlying cause as a way of treating symptoms.
When the aortic or mitral valves are leaking, the left ventricle adapts to the increased volume load by getting larger. This results in cardiomegaly. If the aortic valve is narrow, this results in an obstruction to the left ventricle which develops hypertrophy and cardiomegaly.
Left ventricular hypertrophy, or LVH, is a term for a heart's left pumping chamber that has thickened and may not be pumping efficiently. Sometimes problems such as aortic stenosis or high blood pressure overwork the heart muscle.
Benign neoplasm of heart 1 D15.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. 2 The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM D15.1 became effective on October 1, 2020. 3 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of D15.1 - other international versions of ICD-10 D15.1 may differ.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10 codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more. The following references are applicable to the code I51.89:
The Index to Diseases and Injuries is an alphabetical listing of medical terms, with each term mapped to one or more ICD-10 code (s). The following references for the code I51.89 are found in the index:
The following clinical terms are approximate synonyms or lay terms that might be used to identify the correct diagnosis code:
The General Equivalency Mapping (GEM) crosswalk indicates an approximate mapping between the ICD-10 code I51.89 its ICD-9 equivalent. The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 code and the ICD-9 code and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.
If you're like most people, you think that heart disease is a problem for others. But heart disease is the number one killer in the U.S. It is also a major cause of disability. There are many different forms of heart disease.
