  • Use I77.70 for Dissection of unspecified artery - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I77.71 for Dissection of carotid artery - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I77.72 for Dissection of iliac artery - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I77.73 for Dissection of renal artery - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I77.74 for Dissection of vertebral artery - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I77.75 for Dissection of other precerebral arteries - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I77.76 for Dissection of artery of upper extremity - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I77.77 for Dissection of artery of lower extremity - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use I77.79 for Dissection of other specified artery - BILLABLE CODE

Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries

Type 2 Excludes

Type 2 Excludes
A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.
