About ICD-9-CM 454.0

454.0 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for varicose veins of lower extremities with ulcer. 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 I83.009 (Varicose veins of unspecified lower extremity with ulcer of unspecified site), I83.019 (Varicose veins of right lower extremity with ulcer of unspecified site) and I83.029 (Varicose veins of left lower extremity with ulcer of unspecified site). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
