I77: Other disorders of arteries and arterioles
I77.8: Other specified disorders of arteries and arterioles
The ICD-10 code I77.8 refers to "Other specified disorders of arteries and arterioles". This is a condition in which there are specific but uncommon problems with the arteries (large blood vessels that take blood away from the heart) or arterioles (smaller branches of arteries). These disorders could be due to a variety of causes, which can affect the function and structure of these blood vessels, inhibit blood flow, or lead to subsequent cardiovascular complications. Symptoms may vary depending on which arteries or arterioles are compromised and can include pain or discomfort, fatigue, or signs related to affected organs. As these disorders may present differently and progress variably, it is essential for individuals with these conditions to have regular follow-ups to monitor any changes in their condition.
