ICD-10 Code I67.89 – Other cerebrovascular disease (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code I67.89 – Other cerebrovascular disease
What it is
I67.89 identifies cerebrovascular disease that is not described by a more specific ICD-10-CM code. Use it for documented disorders affecting cerebral blood vessels when the record does not fit another category.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Findings may include neurologic deficits, prior stroke-like symptoms, or imaging evidence of vascular disease, but you should code only what is clearly documented.
When to use this code
Use I67.89 when the clinician documents an unspecified or other cerebrovascular disorder and no more specific code applies. It may fit charted diagnoses such as atypical vascular brain disease, if the provider states it as cerebrovascular in origin. Check the note for whether the condition is current, historical, or better coded elsewhere.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for acute stroke, transient ischemic attack, cerebral infarction, or hemorrhage when a more specific code is documented. Also avoid it when the condition is clearly classified under another cerebrovascular code.
Coding tip
Before assigning I67.89, verify that the provider’s wording supports a cerebrovascular diagnosis and that no more specific code is available.
