Other mechanical complication of surgically created arteriovenous fistula, subsequent encounter
T82.590D (also written T82590D) is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other mechanical complication of surgically created arteriovenous fistula, subsequent encounter. It is part of the FY2027 code set, effective October 1, 2026. It is one of the 297 codes in category T82 (Complications of cardiac and vascular prosthetic devices, implants and grafts). The Alphabetic Index lists it under 3 entries. Its 7th character, D, means subsequent encounter. Its coding notes include a Use additional code instruction and 25 Excludes2 entries.
7th character
Category T82 requires a 7th character.
Guidelines tips
From the FY2027 Official Guidelines. ICD10Ref adds no rules of its own.
The 7th character depends on whether the patient is in active treatment, not on who sees the patient. An aftercare Z code is not used for injury aftercare.
A complication code needs the provider's documented cause-and-effect link between the care and the condition. Some T codes already include the type of procedure, so no external cause code is needed.
Use additional code
Add the listed code as a secondary code, if known.
Also from chapter/block level (4 notes)
- code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5)
- code(s) to identify the specified condition resulting from the complication
- code to identify devices involved and details of circumstances (Y62-Y82)
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)
Excludes2
Not included here. Both codes may be reported if the patient has both conditions.
- mechanical complication of epidural and subdural infusion catheter (T85.61)
- failure and rejection of transplanted organs and tissue (T86.-)
Also from chapter/block level (23 notes)

Notes
Also from chapter/block level (2 notes)
- Use secondary code(s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code
- The chapter uses the S-section for coding different types of injuries related to single body regions and the T-section to cover injuries to unspecified body regions as well as poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes.
