About ICD-9-CM 904.3
904.3 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for injury to saphenous veins. 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 S75.209A (Unspecified injury of greater saphenous vein at hip and thigh level, unspecified leg, initial encounter), S85.309A (Unspecified injury of greater saphenous vein at lower leg level, unspecified leg, initial encounter) and S85.409A (Unspecified injury of lesser saphenous vein at lower leg level, unspecified leg, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
