I72

Other aneurysm

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 9 more specific codes instead:

  • I72.0 Aneurysm of carotid artery
  • I72.1 Aneurysm of artery of upper extremity
  • I72.2 Aneurysm of renal artery
  • I72.3 Aneurysm of iliac artery
  • I72.4 Aneurysm of artery of lower extremity
  • I72.5 Aneurysm of other precerebral arteries
  • I72.6 Aneurysm of vertebral artery
  • I72.8 Aneurysm of other specified arteries
  • I72.9 Aneurysm of unspecified site

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
