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 414.12 was previously used, I25.42 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
A coronary artery dissection (also known as spontaneous coronary artery dissection, or SCAD) is a rare, sometimes fatal traumatic condition, with eighty percent of cases affecting women. The coronary artery develops a tear, causing blood to flow between the layers which forces them apart.
Type A dissection occurs when the tear develops in the ascending part of the aorta just as it branches off the heart, while Type B dissection involves the lower aorta. While Type A dissection is the more dangerous form, chances of survival are significantly improved with early detection and management.
I71.0I71. 0 - Dissection of aorta. ICD-10-CM.
Type A aortic dissection occurs in the ascending aorta, which is the curved part of the aorta that extends upward from the heart. This tear may extend along the upper part of the aorta and down toward the abdomen. Type A is the most common type of aortic dissection and is more likely to be acute than chronic.
A Type A aortic dissection is a medical emergency and requires surgery to repair the tear before further damage occurs. The most typical surgery for aortic dissection is valve sparing root replacement, or the David procedure.
In the Stanford classification of aortic dissection: Type A involves the ascending aorta and may progress to involve the arch and thoracoabdominal aorta. Type B involves the descending thoracic or thoracoabdominal aorta distal to the left subclavian artery without involvement of ascending aorta.

An aortic dissection is caused by a weakened area of the aorta's wall. Aortic dissections are divided into two groups, depending on which part of the aorta is affected: Type A. This more common and dangerous type involves a tear in the part of the aorta where it exits the heart.
INTRODUCTION. Chronic type B aortic dissection is defined as one in which the tear originates in the descending thoracic aorta and which has been present for more than 90 days.
An aortic aneurysm occurs when a weak spot in the wall of the aorta begins to bulge, as shown in the image on the left. An aneurysm can occur anywhere in the aorta. Having an aortic aneurysm increases the risk of a tear in the aortic lining (aortic dissection), as shown in the image on the right.
Type A which is the more common and dangerous of the two and involves a tear in the part of the aorta where it exits the heart or a tear in the upper, or ascending aorta, which may extend into the abdomen. Type B which involves a tear in the lower, or descending, aorta only, which may also extend into the abdomen.
This procedure is done to improve blood flow to the arteries that feed the abdominal organs and kidneys, and sometimes the pelvis and legs. The operation entails removing the dissection flap from the aorta and possibly replacing a portion of the aorta. You are given general anesthesia.
A CT of the chest can confirm a diagnosis of aortic dissection. Magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA). An MRA uses a magnetic field and radio wave energy to create images of your blood vessels.
After being admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, the mean arterial pressure on the left arm was noted to be significant higher. On physical examination, both lower limbs were dusky in appearance because of poor perfusion.
Type I – originates in ascending aorta, and propagates at least to the aortic arch and often beyond it distally. It is most often seen in patients less than 65 years of age and is the most lethal form of the disease. Type II – originates in the ascending aorta and is confined to it.
Prognosis for Aortic Dissection Hospital mortality rate for treated patients is about 30% for proximal dissection and 10% for distal. For treated patients who survive the acute episode, survival rate is about 60% at 5 years and 40% at 10 years.
Abstract. The frozen elephant trunk (FET) procedure, or open stent grafting, is a tool for the combined open and endovascular treatment via a median sternotomy of extensive aortic disease involving both aortic arch and descending thoracic aorta.
A coronary artery dissection (also known as spontaneous coronary artery dissection, or SCAD) is a rare, sometimes fatal traumatic condition, with eighty percent of cases affecting women. The coronary artery develops a tear, causing blood to flow between the layers which forces them apart.
