About I86.2

I86.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pelvic varices. It belongs to category I86 (varicose veins of other sites), block I80-I89 (diseases of veins, lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 9 (diseases of the circulatory system). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within I86 (varicose veins of other sites), I86.2 is specifically for pelvic varices. Related codes cover sublingual varices (I86.0), scrotal varices (I86.1), Vulval varices (I86.3), gastric varices (I86.4) and varicose veins of other specified sites (I86.8).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 729 (Other Male Reproductive System Diagnoses with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.0544), DRG 730 (Other Male Reproductive System Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6597), DRG 742 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.8456), DRG 743 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy without CC/MCC, relative weight 1.2974), DRG 760 (Menstrual and Other Female Reproductive System Disorders with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.0129) and DRG 761 (Menstrual and Other Female Reproductive System Disorders without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7041), in MDC 12 (Diseases and Disorders of the Male Reproductive System) and MDC 13 (Diseases and Disorders of the Female Reproductive System), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.

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

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 456.5 (pelvic varices).
