I82.C2Chronic embolism and thrombosis of internal jugular vein

I82.C2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for chronic embolism and thrombosis of internal jugular vein. It belongs to category I82 (other venous embolism and thrombosis), block I80-I89 (diseases of veins, lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 9 (diseases of the circulatory system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

Within I82.C (embolism and thrombosis of internal jugular vein), I82.C2 is specifically for chronic embolism and thrombosis of internal jugular vein. Related codes cover acute embolism and thrombosis of internal jugular vein (I82.C1).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: I82.C21 (vein), I82.C22 (vein), I82.C23 (bilateral) and I82.C29 (vein).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
