I69.843
ICD-10-CMMonoplegia of lower limb following other cerebrovascular disease affecting right non-dominant side
This code signifies paralysis affecting a single lower limb (monoplegia) that developed as a sequela of a cerebrovascular event other than an infarction or hemorrhage. The neurological deficit is specifically located on the right side of the body, which has been determined to be the patient's non-dominant side. This condition represents a chronic neurological impairment resulting from a past cerebrovascular incident.
Use this code when documentation clearly indicates a patient presents with monoplegia of the right lower extremity, and the etiology is attributed to a previous cerebrovascular disease classified as "other" (e.g., transient cerebral ischemia, cerebral arteritis, etc.). The medical record must specify that the right side is the non-dominant side and confirm the monoplegia is a residual effect of the cerebrovascular event.
