I97.811Intraoperative cerebrovascular infarction during other surgery

I97.811 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for intraoperative cerebrovascular infarction during other surgery. It belongs to category I97 (intraoperative and postprocedural complications and disorders of circulatory system, not elsewhere classified), block I95-I99 (other and unspecified disorders of the circulatory system) 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 I97.81, choose I97.811 (during other surgery) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: during cardiac surgery (I97.810).

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 091 (Other Disorders of Nervous System with MCC, relative weight 1.7046), DRG 092 (Other Disorders of Nervous System with CC, relative weight 1.0239) and DRG 093 (Other Disorders of Nervous System without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7783), in MDC 01 (Diseases and Disorders of the Nervous 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 997.02 (iatrogenic cerebrovascular infarction or hemorrhage).
