DVT ICD-10-CM Codes

A person with deep vein thrombosis may have discolored skin, swollen and tender arm or leg, abdominal blockage and pain, blockages in the veins, and headaches.

The upper extremity veins that can be affected by DVT are the radial, ulnar, brachial, axillary, and subclavian veins.

Healthcare professionals will resort to conducting MRI and CT scans. They may also conduct venographies and duplex venous ultrasounds.
