ICD-9-CM diagnosis code (retired)
434.00 — Cerebral thrombosis without mention of cerebral infarction
About ICD-9-CM 434.00
434.00 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for cerebral thrombosis without mention of cerebral infarction. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 3 ICD-10-CM codes, such as I66.09 (Occlusion and stenosis of unspecified middle cerebral artery), I66.19 (Occlusion and stenosis of unspecified anterior cerebral artery) and I66.29 (Occlusion and stenosis of unspecified posterior cerebral artery). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
