ICD-9-CM 325

CMS Source: final ICD-9-CM release (version date October 1, 2014). Retired from U.S. claims after September 30, 2015.

325 is a legacy ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for phlebitis and thrombophlebitis of intracranial venous sinuses. It was valid on U.S. claims through September 30, 2015 and cannot be reported for services on or after October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM replaced the ICD-9 code set. Under the CMS General Equivalence Mappings, its ICD-10-CM replacement is G08 (Intracranial and intraspinal phlebitis and thrombophlebitis), flagged as a direct match.

Information for Patients

Brain Diseases

The brain is the control center of the body. It controls thoughts, memory, speech, and movement. It regulates the function of many organs. When the brain is healthy, it works quickly and automatically. However, when problems occur, the results can be devastating.

Questions About 325

Is 325 (phlebitis and thrombophlebitis of intracranial venous…) still a valid code?

No. This code belonged to ICD-9-CM, which the United States retired after September 30, 2015. Claims with dates of service on or after October 1, 2015 must use ICD-10-CM codes, such as its replacement G08.

What is the ICD-10 replacement for 325?

The General Equivalence Mappings crosswalk this code directly to ICD-10-CM G08 (Intracranial and intraspinal phlebitis and thrombophlebitis), a one-to-one match.

What did 325 mean?

In the final ICD-9-CM release, this code described phlebitis and thrombophlebitis of intracranial venous sinuses. It sat in block 325 Phlebitis and thrombophlebitis of intracranial venous sinuses under Diseases of the nervous system (320–359).
