About T85.620
T85.620 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for displacement of cranial or spinal infusion catheter. It belongs to category T85 (complications of other internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts), block T80-T88 (complications of surgical and medical care, not elsewhere classified) 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.
Within T85.62 (displacement of other specified internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts), T85.620 is specifically for displacement of cranial or spinal infusion catheter. Related codes cover intraperitoneal dialysis catheter (T85.621), permanent sutures (T85.622), artificial skin graft and decellularized allodermis (T85.623), insulin pump (T85.624), other nervous system device, implant or graft (T85.625) and other specified internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T85.628).
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.
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015, and changed in FY2017 (title revised).
7th character
The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category T85
