T85.630Leakage of cranial or spinal infusion catheter

T85.630 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for leakage 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 T85.63 (leakage of other specified internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts), T85.630 is specifically for leakage of cranial or spinal infusion catheter. Related codes cover intraperitoneal dialysis catheter (T85.631), insulin pump (T85.633), other nervous system device, implant or graft (T85.635) and other specified internal prosthetic devices, implants and grafts (T85.638).

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).
