S75.2Injury of greater saphenous vein at hip and thigh level

S75.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for injury of greater saphenous vein at hip and thigh level. It belongs to category S75 (injury of blood vessels at hip and thigh level), block S70-S79 (injuries to the hip and thigh) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

Within S75 (injury of blood vessels at hip and thigh level), S75.2 is specifically for injury of greater saphenous vein at hip and thigh level. Related codes cover femoral artery (S75.0), femoral vein at hip and thigh level (S75.1), other blood vessels at hip and thigh level (S75.8) and unspecified blood vessel at hip and thigh level (S75.9).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

Don't report S75.2 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: greater saphenous vein NOS (S85.3).

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