Can anyone suggest an ICD-9 code for post tibial insufficiency? There is no mention of tibialis tendonitis.
 


It would depend on what type of insufficiency:
If it is venous you would use 459.81

If it is arterial you would need to define the cause:
An occlusion-444.22
Atherosclerosis-440.20-440.29
Stricture of the artery-447.1
 
Is post an abbreviation for posterior? I'm not sure is you're asking about posterior tibial insufficiency or something else.
