ICD-10 Code I25.760 – Atherosclerosis of bypass graft of coronary artery of transplanted heart with unstable angina (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I25.760 – Atherosclerosis of bypass graft of coronary artery of transplanted heart with unstable angina
What it is
This code identifies atherosclerosis affecting a bypass graft in the coronary artery of a transplanted heart, with unstable angina. It shows graft-related coronary artery disease in a transplanted heart with active ischemic chest pain.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly, you will see unstable angina documented with chest pain or pressure at rest, new or worsening symptoms, and evidence that the bypass graft is involved.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents atherosclerosis in a coronary bypass graft of a transplanted heart and also states unstable angina. It applies when the graft disease is the specific coronary finding, not just general transplant follow-up. Check documentation if the record mentions ischemia without clear unstable angina.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for stable angina, nonspecific chest pain, or coronary disease in a native heart. If the graft lesion or unstable angina is not documented, check documentation before assigning I25.760.
Coding tip
Match both elements in the chart: graft atherosclerosis in a transplanted heart and unstable angina.
