Q26.2 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Q26.3 - other international versions of ICD-10 Q26.3 may differ. A congenital heart disorder in which one or two pulmonary veins are not connected to the left atrium and drain into the right atrium instead. It may lead to arrhythmias and pulmonary hypertension.

Total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) (pronounced TOHT-l uh-NOM-uh-luh-s PUHL-muh-ner-ee VEE-nuh-s ri-TURN), or connection (TAPVC) is a birth defect of the heart in which the veins bringing blood back from the lungs (pulmonary veins) don't connect to the left atrium like usual.
Signs and Symptoms Patients with obstructed TAPVR (total anomalous pulmonary venous return) are ill soon after birth. These children are severely cyanotic (blue coloring to skin, lips and nails). They also have respiratory problems, rapid breathing, grunting and retractions of the rib cage muscles.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a treatment for aortic valve stenosis. Aortic valve stenosis — or aortic stenosis — occurs when the heart's aortic valve thickens and becomes stiff (calcifies). As a result, the valve can't fully open and blood flow to the body is reduced.
Anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (APVD) is the drainage of one or more pulmonary veins outside the left atrium. Its detection is critical due to the strong association with congenital heart disease as well as other cardiac and respiratory anomalies, which have significant implications for patient management.
Generally, there are four types of TAPVR:Supracardiac TAPVR. The pulmonary veins drain into the right atrium through the superior vena cava. ... Infracardiac TAPVR. The pulmonary veins drain into the right atrium through the liver (hepatic) veins and the inferior vena cava. ... Cardiac TAPVR. There are two types. ... Mixed TAPVR.
There are 4 types of TAPVR with the mixed type being the least common. Any type of TAPVR may be associated with obstruction as result of flow redirection through the liver parenchyma before it may return to the heart, but infracardiac is the most common one.
The surgeon makes an 8- to 10-inch cut in the chest. The surgeon cuts through all or part of the patient's breastbone to expose the heart. Once the heart is visible, the patient may be connected to a heart-lung bypass machine. The machine moves blood away from the heart so that the surgeon can operate.
In partial anomalous pulmonary venous return, some of the pulmonary veins incorrectly send blood to the heart's upper right chamber (atrium). This causes some oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to mix with oxygen-poor blood before entering the right atrium.
Total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) is a congenital (present at birth) heart defect. Due to abnormal development of the prenatal heart during the first eight weeks of pregnancy, the vessels that bring oxygen-rich (red) blood back to the heart from the lungs are improperly connected.
In anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA), something goes wrong while the heart is forming in the womb, and the left coronary artery arises from the pulmonary artery instead of the aorta.
Anomalous pulmonary venous connection (or Anomalous pulmonary venous drainage or Anomalous pulmonary venous return) is a congenital defect of the pulmonary veins.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 747.41 was previously used, Q26.2 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
Q26.2 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection . 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 .
