A complete occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is an important cause of cerebrovascular disease. A never‐symptomatic ICA occlusion has a relatively benign course, whereas symptomatic occlusion increases future risk of strokes.
Occlusion and stenosis of unspecified carotid artery I65. 29 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 I65. 29 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Ischemic stroke caused by ICA occlusion can present with clinical features that are indistinguishable from those associated with other causes of stroke. In some patients, however, careful history taking may uncover a hemodynamic origin of cerebral or retinal ischemia, suggesting ICA occlusion.Oct 1, 1997
Occlusion and stenosis of unspecified cerebral artery The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I66. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Cerebral infarction due to unspecified occlusion or stenosis of left carotid arteries. I63. 232 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

Anatomically the ICA is divided into extracranial and intracranial parts. The intracranial part is further subdivided into petrous, cavernous, and cerebral parts [1,2]. Clinically they are described as anterior circulation of the brain.
Posterior cerebral artery (PCA) infarcts arise, as the name says, from occlusion of the posterior cerebral artery. It is a type of posterior circulation infarction.Aug 2, 2021
Intraluminal carotid artery thrombus (ICT) is an infrequent finding in patients presenting with transient ischemic attack (TIA) or ischemic stroke. It can be a focal process limited to the cervical internal carotid artery (ICA), or a more extensive condition that involves both the extracranial and intracranial ICA.Dec 19, 2013

Syncope is in the ICD-10 coding system coded as R55. 9 (syncope and collapse).Nov 4, 2012
Carotid stenosis is a narrowing or constriction of the inner surface (lumen) of the carotid artery, usually caused by atherosclerosis.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code I65.22 and a single ICD9 code, 433.10 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
I65.22 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Occlusion and stenosis of left carotid artery . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
DO NOT include the decimal point when electronically filing claims as it may be rejected. Some clearinghouses may remove it for you but to avoid having a rejected claim due to an invalid ICD-10 code, do not include the decimal point when submitting claims electronically.
