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).

DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot in a vein, usually the leg. DVT can be dangerous. Get medical help as soon as possible if you think you have DVT.
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.
Patients with a first episode of calf DVT with a transient risk factor should receive heparin therapy followed by oral anticoagulation for six to 12 weeks.
In acute thrombosis, vein is distended by hypoechoic thrombus and shows partial or no compressibility without collaterals (Figure 1). In chronic thrombosis, the vein is incompressible, narrow and irregular and shows echogenic thrombus attached to the venous walls with development of collaterals (Figure 2).
Distal DVT (also known as isolated distal DVT, calf DVT or below-the-knee DVT) occurs when the blood clot develops inside the leg veins (below the knee). The extension of the clot in proximal (above the knee) veins and the migration of a clot to the lungs (PE) are the most common complications.
Distal DVT can either be treated with anticoagulation (medicines that help prevent blood clots), with or without additional use of compression stockings, or no medications can be given, and monitoring with repeat ultrasounds can be performed to see if the clots grow, which requires anticoagulation.
The risk of a pulmonary embolism associated with a distal deep vein thrombosis (distal to the popliteal vein) is much lower (<5%). Although an isolated calf deep vein thrombosis is often considered innocuous, 1 , 5 a recent case suggests that this diagnosis can be clinically important.
The word “distal” refers to the deep veins below the knee. Though anatomical variability is often the case, these veins include the paired peroneal, posterior tibial, and anterior tibial veins that accompany the corresponding arteries of the lower leg (Figure 1).

There are too many ICD 10 codes for vein related diagnosis to list here. For example, just for varicose vein related diagnosis, there are roughly 30 ICD 10 codes. However, some of the primary diagnosis codes we use in our practice are as follows:
A CPT code is a 5 digit number code that describes every procedure or medical service that exists. CPT codes are defined and maintained by the American Medical Association. One of the main uses of these codes are for billing. Whenever a doctor performs a service or procedure, she or he chooses the most appropriate CPT codes.
Deep vein thrombosis, or DVT, is a blood clot that forms in a vein deep in the body. Most deep vein clots occur in the lower leg or thigh. If the vein swells, the condition is called thrombophlebitis. A deep vein thrombosis can break loose and cause a serious problem in the lung, called a pulmonary embolism.
Keeping the affected area raised and applying moist heat can also help. If you are taking a long car or plane trip, take a break, walk or stretch your legs and drink plenty of liquids.
A blood clot is mass of blood that forms when platelets, proteins, and cells in the blood stick together. When you get hurt, your body forms a blood clot to stop the bleeding. After the bleeding stops and healing takes place, your body usually breaks down and removes the blood clot. But sometimes the blood clots form where they shouldn't, your body makes too many blood clots or abnormal blood clots, or the blood clots don't break down like they should. These blood clots can be dangerous and may cause other health problems.
Treatments for blood clots depend on where the blood clot is located and how severe it is. Treatments may include
I82.542 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of chronic embolism and thrombosis of left tibial vein. The code I82.542 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
If a blood clot in a deep vein breaks off and travels through the bloodstream to the lungs and blocks blood flow, it is called a pulmonary embolism. Other complications of blood clots include stroke, heart attack, kidney problems, kidney failure, and pregnancy-related problems.Treatments for blood clots include blood thinners and other medicines.
Sitting still for a long time can make you more likely to get a DVT. Some medicines and disorders that increase your risk for blood clots can also lead to DVTs. Common symptoms are
