The ICD-10 code for Other vascular myelopathies is G95.19.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G95.19 – Other vascular myelopathies

What it is

G95.19 identifies vascular disorders of the spinal cord that are not classified elsewhere. Use it when documentation shows a spinal cord problem caused by blood vessel disease, but a more specific vascular myelopathy code is not available.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly, records may describe spinal cord dysfunction such as weakness, sensory changes, or gait disturbance linked to a vascular cause.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents an other or unspecified vascular myelopathy affecting the spinal cord. It may apply when imaging, exam findings, or specialist assessment supports a vascular spinal cord disorder, but the record does not name a more specific subtype.

Do not assign it for nonvascular myelopathies or for spinal cord compression without vascular involvement. If the chart uses vague wording, check documentation before coding.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for traumatic, compressive, infectious, inflammatory, or degenerative spinal cord conditions. If the cause is stated elsewhere in the record, code the documented condition instead.

Coding tip

Verify that the provider links the spinal cord findings to a vascular cause before using G95.19.
