ICD-10 Code I25.72 – Atherosclerosis of autologous artery coronary artery bypass graft(s) with angina pectoris (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I25.72 – Atherosclerosis of autologous artery coronary artery bypass graft(s) with angina pectoris
What it is
This code identifies atherosclerosis affecting an autologous coronary artery bypass graft, with angina pectoris. It means the patient has plaque-related narrowing in a graft made from their own tissue and also has chest pain from reduced blood flow.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include exertional chest pain, pressure, or discomfort consistent with angina. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation, and confirm that the provider links the angina to the graft disease.
When to use this code
Use this code when the record clearly documents atherosclerosis in an autologous coronary bypass graft and angina pectoris is present. The note should identify the graft as the source of the coronary disease, not the native coronary arteries. If the documentation does not specify graft type or angina relationship, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for angina without documented graft atherosclerosis, or for disease in a non-autologous graft. Also avoid it when the record only describes coronary artery disease in the native vessels.
Coding tip
Verify both the graft type and the provider’s linkage of angina to the bypass graft disease before assigning I25.72.
