The new codes are for describing the infusion of tixagevimab and cilgavimab monoclonal antibody (code XW023X7), and the infusion of other new technology monoclonal antibody (code XW023Y7).
What is the correct ICD-10-CM code to report the External Cause? Your Answer: V80.010S The External cause code is used for each encounter for which the injury or condition is being treated.

ICD-10-CM features combination codes for poisonings and their associated external cause. These codes identify both the substance that was taken and the intent. No additional external cause code is required for poisonings, toxic effects, adverse effects, and underdosing codes. This chart gives an example of a combination code for poisonings.

Abstract. 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.
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.

The internal carotid artery (ICA) is one of the two terminal branches of the common carotid artery (CCA) which supplies the intracranial structures.

The left common carotid artery is the second main branch and arises directly off the aorta. The left and right carotid arteries carry blood and oxygen to the brain and head and face. A clot or blockage in the carotid can cause serious complications.
A cerebral infarction (also known as a stroke) refers to damage to tissues in the brain due to a loss of oxygen to the area. The mention of "arteriosclerotic cerebrovascular disease" refers to arteriosclerosis, or "hardening of the arteries" that supply oxygen-containing blood to the brain.
ICD-10 code I65. 2 for Occlusion and stenosis of carotid artery is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
With this update, as long as bilateral carotid artery disease is documented with occlusion and stenosis, code I65. 23 (Occlusion and stenosis of bilateral carotid arteries) should be used. If stenosis and occlusion is not documented with carotid artery disease, code I77.
The carotid sinus, also known as the carotid bulb, is a neurovascular structure that appears as a dilation at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery, and the beginning of the internal carotid artery.
