Other hereditary cerebrovascular disease
ICD-10 I67.858 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of other hereditary cerebrovascular disease.
I67.858 refers to other hereditary cerebrovascular diseases, which encompass a variety of genetic conditions that predispose individuals to cerebrovascular events such as strokes or transient ischemic attacks. These conditions may involve structural abnormalities in blood vessels, such as arteriovenous malformations or hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, which can lead to increased risk of hemorrhagic strokes. The clinical presentation often includes neurological deficits, headaches, and seizures, depending on the specific vascular abnormality and its location in the brain. The anatomy involved primarily includes the cerebral arteries and veins, which can be affected by genetic mutations that alter their structure and function. Disease progression can vary significantly, with some patients experiencing early-onset cerebrovascular incidents while others may remain asymptomatic for years. Diagnostic considerations include imaging studies such as MRI or CT scans to identify vascular malformations, along with genetic testing to confirm hereditary conditions. Early diagnosis and management are crucial to prevent severe complications and improve patient outcomes.

I67.858 includes hereditary conditions such as cerebral arteriovenous malformations, hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, and other genetic syndromes that affect cerebrovascular integrity, leading to increased stroke risk.
I67.858 should be used when a specific hereditary cerebrovascular condition is diagnosed, particularly when genetic testing confirms the hereditary nature of the cerebrovascular disease, differentiating it from acquired conditions.
Documentation should include clinical notes detailing the patient's history, results from imaging studies confirming vascular abnormalities, and genetic testing results that establish the hereditary nature of the condition.
