ICD-10 code for extremity artery graft complication

T82.9

Unspecified complication of cardiac and vascular prosthetic device, implant and graft

Header — needs a more specific code

From the official ICD-10-CM alphabetic index entry “Complication (s) (from) (of) › extremity artery (bypass) graft”. Page updated September 29, 2026.

About coding extremity artery graft complication

The ICD-10-CM code for extremity artery graft complication is T82.9 (Unspecified complication of cardiac and vascular prosthetic device, implant and graft). The official index lists 22 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on T82.9.

Within T82, choose T82.9 (Unspecified complication of cardiac and vascular prosthetic device, implant and graft) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: mechanical complication of heart valve prosthesis (T82.0), mechanical complication of cardiac electronic device (T82.1), mechanical complication of coronary artery bypass graft and biological heart valve graft (T82.2), mechanical complication of other vascular grafts (T82.3), mechanical complication of vascular dialysis catheter (T82.4), mechanical complication of other cardiac and vascular devices and implants (T82.5), infection and inflammatory reaction due to cardiac valve prosthesis (T82.6), infection and inflammatory reaction due to other cardiac and vascular devices, implants and grafts (T82.7) and 1 more.

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 hasn't changed since.
